Scaramuzzino, Paolo Francesco (author), Pavel, M.D. (author), Pool, D.M. (author), Stroosma, O. (author), Quaranta, Giuseppe (author), Mulder, Max (author)Autorotation is a flight condition whereby the engine of a helicopter is no longer supplying power to the main rotor system, which is driven solely by the upward flow of the air moving through the rotor. For helicopters, autorotation is a common emergency procedure performed by pilots to safely land the vehicle in the event of a power failure...conference paper 2019

Mulder, W.A. (author), Geevers, S. (author), van der Vegt, J. (author)Mass-lumped finite elements on tetrahedra offer more flexibility than their counterpart on hexahedra for the simulation of seismic wave propagation, but there is no general recipe for their construction, unlike as with hexahedra. Earlier, we found new elements up to degree 4 that have significantly less nodes than previously known elements by...conference paper 2019

Klomp, R.E. (author), Riegman, R. (author), Borst, C. (author), Mulder, Max (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author)The current evolution of the ATM system, led by the SESAR programme in Europe and the NextGen programme in the US, is foreseen to bring a paradigm shift to the work of the air traffic controller. Rather than the current primarily tactical control method, one aims for the introduction of more strategic, 4D (space and time) trajectory...conference paper 2019

Fu, W. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)This study revisits the active manipulator developed for manual aircraft control. The active manipulator sends the force applied by the pilot to the aircraft while feeding back the aircraft rotational velocity bymeans of its deflection angle. We find that the activemanipulator, in comparison with the conventional passive manipulator, greatly...conference paper 2019

van Baelen, D. (author), Ellerbroek, Joost (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Modern fly-by-wire aircraft use flight envelope protection systems, whose actions are not always clear to pilots. To promote situation awareness, proximity to the limits of the flight envelope can be communicated using haptic feedback, by providing forces through the control device. Such a system was developed and this paper reports on the...conference paper 2019

Stoev, Stanimir (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Stroosma, O. (author), Miletović, I. (author), Mulder, Max (author)The Eigenmode Distortion (EMD) analysis is a novel method for objective evaluation of simulator motion cueing fidelity, developed at Delft University of Technology. It expresses the distortions of the perceived motion cues in terms of the dynamic modes of a linear model of the vehicle and has been applied to assess rotorcraft simulations. This...conference paper 2019

Mirza, Abdullah (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, T.J. (author), Mulder, Max (author)This paper discusses an approach to convert the longitudinal dynamics of the Cessna Citation into a variable stability platform using response feedback, thereby enabling it to take different positions on the Control Anticipation Parameter (CAP) handling quality criterion. The different positions of an aircraft on the criterion reflect different...conference paper 2019

Mkhoyan, T. (author), Wentink, Mark (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author), de Graaf, B (author)When coupled with additional degrees of freedom, centrifuge-based motion platforms can combine the agility of an hexapod-basedmotion platform with the ability of sustaining higher Glevels and an extended motion space. This combination of motion characteristics is required for realistic simulation of extreme flight scenarios. However, a false and...conference paper 2019

The experiment was performed on two simulators: the Vertical Motion Simulator at NASA Ames Research Center and the SIMONA Research Simulator at Delft University of Technology. Eighteen pilots in the...conference paper 2019

Slingerland, G. (author), Mulder, I. (author), Jaśkiewicz, T.J. (author)The current work explores the participation divide that is oftentimes at play within local citizen communities. The studied case illustrates a common situation where the majority of local citizens does not participate in public space improvement and maintenance activities organised by local community activists. The presented research involved...conference paper 2019

Mulder, S.S. (author)A first exploration is conducted to what the French biological philosophy of technology perspective has to offer to the field of design methodology. If this French perspective is combined with contemporary speculative pragmatism a generative design methodology emerges offering novelty in what is sensed as important in a design situation. Within...conference paper 2019

(author), Bidarra, Rafael (author)Unlike classical physics, quantum physics is harder to explain, as it involves very small scales and phenomena that are not visible to the naked eye. Understanding the differences between classical and quantum physics is difficult, especially for children, who cannot grasp the subtleties conveyed in complicated formulae.<br/><br/>We propose to...conference paper 2019

in 't Veld, A.C. (author), Mulder, T.J. (author), Looye, Gertjan H.N. (author)The Delft University laboratory aircraft Cessna Citation II has the capability to implement and test new auto pilot control laws. The aircraft is equipped as a Fly-By-Wire testbed, that enables the user to control the aircraft through an experimental computer and directly have control over the control surfaces. An extra control stick is mounted...conference paper 2018

van Baelen, D. (author), Ellerbroek, Joost (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Current Airbus aircraft use a fly-by-wire control device: a passive spring-damper system which generates, without any force feedback, an electrical signal to the flight control computer. Additionally, a hard flight envelope protection system is used which can limit the inputs of the pilot when approaching the edges of the flight envelope. To...conference paper 2018

(author), Mulder, Max (author)Time-varying human-operator (HO) adaptation in basic manual-control tasks is barely understood, as most HO identification methods do not explicitly take into account time variations. An identification procedure based on both batch and recursive autoregressive exogenous (ARX) models is used in this paper for captur- ing HO adaptation to time...conference paper 2018
