Gilt leather was one of the most fashionable and costly types of wall hangings in the Western world in the 16th to 18th centuries. Despite its appearance, it is not real gold that creates the golden shine, but typically a silver leaf which is coated with an orange-brown lacquer to obtain a golden lustre. Gilt leather has its origins in North...

This paper proposes a nonlinear control architecture for flexible aircraft simultaneous trajectory tracking and load alleviation. By exploiting the control redundancy, the gust and maneuver loads are alleviated without degrading the rigid-body command tracking performance. The proposed control architecture contains four cascaded control loops:...

The developments in the field of aerospace materials and structures allow the more light weight air vehicles. However, the aircraft body, particularly wing, can deform more appreciably due to the occurrence of flow separation and flutter. Therefore, active control is necessary in order to maintain structural integrity. One of the proposed...

Advancements in aircraft controllers and the tendency towards increasingly lighter and more flexible aircraft designs create the need for adaptive and intelligent control systems. While lighter aircraft structures have the potential to show better structural and aerodynamic efficiency, they are also more susceptible to dynamic loads. A key...

Recent advancements in aircraft controllers paired with increasingly flexible aircraft designs create the need for adaptive and intelligent control systems. To correctly capture the motion of a flexible aircraft wing and provide feedback to the controller, a large number of states (nodes along the span) must be monitored in real-time. Visual...

Advancements in intelligent aircraft controller design, paired with increasingly flexible and efficient aircraft concepts, create the need for the development of novel (smart) adaptive sensing suitable for aeroelastic state estimation. In contrast to rigid states, aeroelastic state estimation requires more measurement points (displacements...

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...

This article describes the challenges of integrating smart sensing, actuation, and control concepts into an over-sensed and over-actuated technology integrator. This technology integrator has more control inputs than the expected responses or outputs (over-actuated), and its every state is measured using more than one sensor system (over-sensed)...

Inspired by nature, smart morphing technologies enable the aircraft of tomorrow to sense their environment and adapt the shape of their wings in flight to minimize fuel consumption and emissions. A primary challenge on the road to this feature is how to use the knowledge gathered from sensory data to establish an optimal shape adaptively and...
