From arsenal delivery to rescue missions, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are playing a crucial role in various fields, which brings the need for continuous evolution of system identification techniques to develop sophisticated mathematical models for effective flight control. In this paper, a novel parameter estimation technique based on filter error method (FEM) augmented with particle swarm optimisation (PSO) is developed and implemented to estimate the longitudinal and lateral-directional aerodynamic, stability and control derivatives of fixed-wing UAVs. The FEM used in the estimation technique is based on the steady-state extended Kalman filter, where the maximum likelihood cost function is minimised separately using a randomised solution search algorithm, PSO and the proposed method is termed FEM-PSO. A sufficient number of compatible flight data sets were generated using two cropped delta wing UAVs, namely CDFP and CDRW, which are used to analyse the applicability of the proposed estimation method. A comparison has been made between the parameter estimates obtained using the proposed method and the computationally intensive conventional FEM. It is observed that most of the FEM-PSO estimates are consistent with wind tunnel and conventional FEM estimates. It is also noticed that estimates of crucial aerodynamic derivatives ${C_{{L_alpha }}},;{C_{{m_alpha }}},;{C_{{Y_beta }}},;{C_{{l_beta }}}$ and ${C_{{n_beta }}}$ obtained using FEM-PSO are having relative offsets of 2.5%, 1.5%, 6.5%, 3.4% and 7.6% w.r.t. wind tunnel values for CDFP, and 1.4%, 1.9%, 0.1%, 9.6% and 7.5% w.r.t. wind tunnel values for CDRW. Despite having slightly higher Cramer-Rao Lower Bounds of estimated aerodynamic derivatives using the FEM-PSO method, the simulated responses have a relative error of less than 0.10% w.r.t. measured flight data. A proof-of-match exercise is also conducted to ascertain the efficacy of the estimates obtained using the proposed method. The degree of effectiveness of the FEM-PSO method is comparable with conventional FEM.
从军火库运送到救援任务,无人机在各个领域发挥着至关重要的作用,这就需要不断发展系统识别技术,以开发有效飞行控制的复杂数学模型。提出并实现了一种基于滤波误差法(FEM)和粒子群优化(PSO)的参数估计方法,用于估计固定翼无人机的纵向和横向气动导数、稳定性和控制导数。在估计技术中使用的FEM是基于稳态扩展卡尔曼滤波器,其中最大似然代价函数分别极小化使用随机解搜索算法,PSO和所提出的方法被称为FEM-PSO。使用两种裁剪三角翼无人机(CDFP和CDRW)生成了足够数量的兼容飞行数据集,用于分析所提出的估计方法的适用性。用该方法得到的参数估计与计算量大的传统有限元法进行了比较。结果表明,大多数有限元-粒子群算法的估算值与风洞和常规有限元估算值一致。还注意到,使用FEM-PSO获得的关键气动导数${C_{{L_alpha }}},;{C_{{m_alpha }}},;{C_{{Y_beta }}},;{C_{{l_beta }}}$和${C_{{n_beta }}}$的估计具有2.5的相对偏移%, 1.5%, 6.5%, 3.4% and 7.6% w.r.t. wind tunnel values for CDFP, and 1.4%, 1.9%, 0.1%, 9.6% and 7.5% w.r.t. wind tunnel values for CDRW.

For a hypersonic-speed aircraft with a flat fuselage structure that has narrow space for a traditional wheel-type landing gear retraction, a novel type of wheel-ski landing gear is designed, which is different from traditional landing gears in force distribution and actuation methods. In order to capture the direction control performance of an aircraft with the wheel-ski landing gear, the aircraft ground taxiing nonlinear dynamic mathematical model is built based on a certain type of aircraft data. The experiment of the wheel-ski landing gear actuator and the differential brake control system is carried out to verify that the electric wheel-ski actuator model with the pressure sensor is in good agreement with the test results, indicating the model validity and the speediness of the differential brake response. Then a new fuzzy combined direction rectifying control law is designed based on the optimisation method and the fuzzy control theory. Comparing with the PD wheel-ski differential brake control, the direction rectifying efficiencies increase higher than 140% during the whole taxiing process. In addition, the combined control law can also decrease the overshoots of the yaw angle responses effectively. Finally, the stability and robustness of the designed combined direction control law are verified under various working conditions.
针对平面机身结构、传统轮式起落架收放空间狭小的高超声速飞机,设计了一种新型轮滑式起落架,该起落架在力分配和作动方式上与传统起落架有所不同。为了捕捉轮滑起落架飞机的方向控制性能,基于某型飞机的数据,建立了飞机地面滑行非线性动力学数学模型。通过对轮滑起落架作动器和差动制动控制系统的实验,验证了带压力传感器的电动轮滑作动器模型与试验结果吻合较好,表明了模型的有效性和差动制动响应的快速性。然后基于优化方法和模糊控制理论,设计了一种新的模糊组合方向纠偏控制律。与PD轮滑差动制动控制相比,在整个滑行过程中,方向整流效率提高了140%以上。此外,该组合控制律还能有效地减小横摆角响应的超调。最后,在各种工况下验证了所设计组合方向控制律的稳定性和鲁棒性。

Development of a morphing UAV for optimal multi-segment mission performance 基于多段任务性能优化的变形无人机研制

The need for innovative solutions to enable aerial platforms to fly faster, higher, and longer continues to remain a primary focus for airframe designers. This paper outlines work undertaken to apply a morphing wing warping technology onto a generic Unmanned Aerial Vehicle to deliver enhanced flight performance, efficiency and control capabilities. The prototype employs wings of novel construction which provide both near resistance-free compliance in twist as well as adequate structural stiffness to resist applied loads; all while preserving an aerodynamically smooth surface. Used in combination with developed and integrated closed-loop feedback control architecture, a real-time, non-linear, span-wise wing twist adjustment capability required for optimised flight under differing operating conditions and flight requirements, is demonstrated. Experimental results obtained from a wind tunnel test program show up to a 72% increase in lift to drag ratio under certain conditions compared to a fixed baseline providing some confidence that the combination could be used to realise a step change in flight performance.

This study addresses orbit design and optimisation for the situation of satellite interception in which the target spacecraft is capable of manoeuvring using continuous magnitude restricted thrust. For the purpose of designing a long-range continuous thrust interception orbit, the orbit motion equations of two satellites with J2 perturbation are constructed. This problem is assumed to be a typical pursuit-evasion problem in differential game theory; using boundary constraint conditions and a performance index function that includes time and fuel consumption, the saddle point solution corresponding to the bilateral optimal is derived, and then this pursuit-evasion problem is transformed into a two-point boundary value problem. A hybrid optimisation method using a genetic algorithm (GA) and sequential quadratic programming (SQP) is derived to obtain the optimal control strategy. The proposed model and algorithm are proved to be feasible for the given simulation cases.

Abstract This paper studied the use of eye movement data to form criteria for judging whether pilots perceive emergency information such as cockpit warnings. In the experiment, 12 subjects randomly encountered different warning information while flying a simulated helicopter, and their eye movement data were collected synchronously. Firstly, the importance of the eye movement features was calculated by ANOVA (analysis of variance). According to the sorting of the importance and the Euclidean distance of each eye movement feature, the warning information samples with different eye movement features were obtained. Secondly, the residual shrinkage network modules were added to CNN (convolutional neural network) to construct a DRSN (deep residual shrinkage networks) model. Finally, the processed warning information samples were used to train and test the DRSN model. In order to verify the superiority of this method, the DRSN model was compared with three machine learning models, namely SVM (support vector machine), RF (radom forest) and BPNN (backpropagation neural network). Among the four models, the DRSN model performed the best. When all eye movement features were selected, this model detected pilot perception of warning information with an average accuracy of 90.4%, of which the highest detection accuracy reached 96.4%. Experiments showed that the DRSN model had advantages in detecting pilot perception of warning information.
摘要本文研究利用眼动数据形成判断飞行员是否感知驾驶舱警告等紧急信息的标准。在实验中,12名被试在驾驶模拟直升机时随机遇到不同的警告信息,并同步收集他们的眼动数据。首先,通过方差分析计算眼动特征的重要性。通过对每个眼动特征的重要性和欧氏距离进行排序,得到具有不同眼动特征的预警信息样本。其次,将剩余收缩网络模块加入到卷积神经网络CNN中,构建深度剩余收缩网络DRSN模型;最后,利用处理后的预警信息样本对DRSN模型进行训练和测试。为了验证该方法的优越性,将DRSN模型与支持向量机(SVM)、随机森林(RF)和反向传播神经网络(BPNN)三种机器学习模型进行了比较。四种模型中,DRSN模型表现最好。当选择所有眼动特征时,该模型检测飞行员对预警信息感知的平均准确率为90.4%,其中最高准确率为96.4%。实验表明,DRSN模型在检测飞行员对预警信息的感知方面具有优势。

Application of wavy leading edge to enhance winglet aerodynamic performance 波浪前缘在小翼气动性能提升中的应用
Pub Date : 2023-01-03 DOI: 10.1017/aer.2022.97

The wavy leading edge (WLE, also known as leading edge protuberances) is a passive flow control device inspired by the humpback whale pectoral flippers. It reduces the flow of three-dimensional effects on wings and increases their aerodynamic performance at high angles of attack. Despite the numerous studies on its aerodynamic benefits, research on its possible applications is still incipient. Therefore, this article addresses an evaluation of the WLE effects on the aerodynamic performance of a winglet. A rectangular wing, a base smooth leading edge winglet, and a winglet with WLE were designed and manufactured for CFD simulations and wind tunnel measurements. The winglet with WLE increased the maximum aerodynamic efficiency, i.e. this configuration reduced the induced drag by increasing wingtip vortex dissipation at a given angle-of-attack. Such results were used in re-evaluations of the aerodynamic performance of an original agricultural aircraft initially configured with a multi-winglet device. The winglet with WLE showed to be effective at increasing the aircraft operational time and range under a simulated actual condition.
波浪前缘(WLE,也称为前缘突起)是一种被动的流量控制装置,灵感来自座头鲸的胸鳍。它减少了气流对机翼的三维影响,提高了机翼在大迎角时的气动性能。尽管对其气动效益进行了大量的研究,但对其可能应用的研究仍处于起步阶段。因此,本文讨论了小翼翼隙对其气动性能的影响。设计并制造了矩形翼、基底光滑前缘小翼和带WLE的小翼,并进行了CFD模拟和风洞测量。带WLE的小翼增加了最大气动效率,即在给定迎角下,这种配置通过增加翼尖涡耗散来减少诱导阻力。这些结果被用于重新评估最初配置了多小翼装置的原始农用飞机的空气动力学性能。仿真结果表明,带WLE的小翼能够有效地增加飞机的作战时间和航程。

Preview of the 75th Anniversary of aerospace engineering at the University of Bristol online collection 布里斯托尔大学在线收藏的航空航天工程75周年预览

This online collection commemorates 75 years of aerospace engineering teaching and research at the University of Bristol. However, interactions with the aircraft industry started long before the Department was formed in 1946 [1], for instance when in 1918 the University began teaching a class in Aircraft Manufacturing. An early graduate of University of Bristol Engineering was Leslie Frise, who was hired by the Bristol Aeroplane Company to assist Chief Designer Frank Barnwell. Among accomplishments in his career, Frise designed the Type 156 Bristol Beaufighter, the Bristol Fighter in 1916 and the Bulldog in 1927. His most lasting contribution was the invention of the Frise Aileron, popular on many older aircraft, such as the Piper Cub, a major pre-WWII trainer in the USA. Frise took over as Chief Designer from Barnwell in 1936 and then became Chief Engineer after Barnwell’s death. Another significant graduate from the pre-department years was Archibald Russell. He was appointed Chief Designer of Bristol Aeroplane Company in 1946, becoming a leading structures expert and, eventually, Managing Director and then Chairman at British Aircraft Corporation Filton. In June 1945, at the end of the second world war, the Bristol Aeroplane Company offered to fund a Chair in Aeronautical Engineering at the University [2]. Sir Alfred Pugsley, who had been the distinguished Head of Structural Engineering at the Royal Aircraft Establishment (RAE) Farnborough had just taken up the chair of Civil Engineering at Bristol. He persuaded Roderick Collar, a mathematician and engineer with whom he had worked closely with at the RAE during the war, to apply and he was appointed as the first holder of the Sir George White Chair [2]. The first six undergraduates arrived in October 1946 and graduated in 1948.
这个在线收藏是为了纪念布里斯托尔大学75年的航空航天工程教学和研究。然而,早在1946年该系成立之前,与飞机工业的互动就开始了[1],例如,1918年大学开始教授飞机制造课程。莱斯利·弗里斯是布里斯托尔工程大学的早期毕业生,他受雇于布里斯托尔飞机公司,协助首席设计师弗兰克·巴恩韦尔。在他的职业生涯中,弗里斯设计了156型布里斯托尔美丽战斗机,1916年的布里斯托尔战斗机和1927年的斗牛犬。他最持久的贡献是发明了旋翼副翼,在许多老式飞机上很受欢迎,比如美国二战前的主要教练机Piper Cub。弗里斯于1936年接替巴恩韦尔担任首席设计师,并在巴恩韦尔去世后成为首席工程师。另一位重要的系前毕业生是阿奇博尔德·罗素。1946年,他被任命为布里斯托尔飞机公司的首席设计师,成为领先的结构专家,并最终成为英国菲尔顿飞机公司的总经理和董事长。1945年6月,在第二次世界大战结束时,布里斯托尔飞机公司提出资助该大学航空工程教授[2]。阿尔弗雷德·帕格斯利爵士,曾是范堡罗皇家飞机公司(RAE)杰出的结构工程主管,刚刚担任布里斯托尔大学土木工程系主任。他说服了数学家、工程师罗德里克·科勒(Roderick Collar)向他提出申请,并被任命为乔治·怀特爵士(Sir George White)的首任主席[2]。科勒在战争期间曾与他在英国皇家研究学院(RAE)密切合作。首批六名本科生于1946年10月抵达,1948年毕业。

An early graduate of University of Bristol Engineering was Leslie Frise, who was hired by the Bristol Aeroplane Company to assist Chief Designer Frank Barnwell. Among accomplishments in his career, Frise designed the Type 156 Bristol Beaufighter, the Bristol Fighter in 1916 and the Bulldog in 1927. His most lasting contribution was the invention of the Frise Aileron, popular on many older aircraft, such as the Piper Cub, a major pre-WWII trainer in the USA. Frise took over as Chief Designer from Barnwell in 1936 and then became Chief Engineer after Barnwell’s death. Another significant graduate from the pre-department years was Archibald Russell. He was appointed Chief Designer of Bristol Aeroplane Company in 1946, becoming a leading structures expert and, eventually, Managing Director and then Chairman at British Aircraft Corporation Filton. In June 1945, at the end of the second world war, the Bristol Aeroplane Company offered to fund a Chair in Aeronautical Engineering at the University [2]. Sir Alfred Pugsley, who had been the distinguished Head of Structural Engineering at the Royal Aircraft Establishment (RAE) Farnborough had just taken up the chair of Civil Engineering at Bristol. He persuaded Roderick Collar, a mathematician and engineer with whom he had worked closely with at the RAE during the war, to apply and he was appointed as the first holder of the Sir George White Chair [2]. The first six undergraduates arrived in October 1946 and graduated in 1948.","PeriodicalId":22567,"journal":{"name":"The Aeronautical Journal (1968)","volume":"3 1","pages":"163 - 166"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76091753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Movement mechanisms for transport aircraft during severe clear-air turbulence encounter 运输机在遭遇严重晴空乱流时的运动机制

The objective of this paper is to present the movement mechanisms of transport aircraft response to severe clear-air turbulence to obtain the loss of control prevention for pilot training in IATA – Loss of Control In-flight (LOC-I) program. The transport aircraft in transonic flight is subjected to severe clear-air turbulence, resulting in a sudden plunging motion with the abrupt change in flight attitude and gravitational acceleration. The comparative analyses of the flight environment and aircraft response to severe clear-air turbulence for two four-jet aircraft are studied. The one with a larger dropped-off altitude during the plunging motion will be chosen to construct the movement mechanism. The nonlinear unsteady aerodynamic model of the chosen transport is established through flight data mining and the fuzzy-logic modeling of artificial intelligence technique based on post-flight data. The crosswind before the turbulence encounter will easily induce a rolling motion and then the sudden plunging motion during the turbulence encounter. The influences of the varying vertical wind and crosswind on loss of control are presented. To formulate preventive actions, the situation awareness of varying crosswind encountering for the operational pilot will be studied further in the future. The present study is initiated to examine the possible mitigation concepts of accident prevention for the pilot training course of IATA – Loss of Control In-flight (LOC-I) program.
本文的目的是介绍运输飞机对严重晴空湍流的运动机制,以获得IATA -飞行中失去控制(LOC-I)计划中飞行员培训的控制失控预防。运输机在跨声速飞行时,会受到严重的晴空湍流的影响,产生突然的俯冲运动,伴随着飞行姿态和重力加速度的突变。对两种四喷气机的飞行环境和飞机对严重晴空湍流的响应进行了对比分析。选取俯冲运动中下降高度较大的一个来构建运动机构。通过飞行数据挖掘和基于飞行后数据的人工智能模糊逻辑建模技术,建立了所选运输机的非线性非定常气动模型。湍流相遇前的侧风很容易引起翻滚运动,然后在湍流相遇时突然俯冲运动。分析了垂直风和侧风的变化对失控的影响。为了制定预防措施,未来将进一步研究作战飞行员对不同侧风遭遇的态势感知。本研究旨在探讨国际航空运输协会(IATA)飞行失控(LOC-I)计划飞行员培训课程中可能的事故预防缓解概念。

Investigation on frequency influence on the transverse pulsed jet in a supersonic crossflow 超声速横流中频率对横向脉冲射流影响的研究

Abstract The pulsed jet is a novel and effective active mixing enhancement approach. For the transverse pulsed jet in the supersonic crossflow, the frequency influence is investigated using the three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations coupled with the SST k-ω turbulence model. The averaged flow field properties of the pulsed jet are better than those of the steady jet when considering mixing efficiency and jet penetration depth, especially for the case with the pulsed frequency being 50kHz. The flow field structures of the pulsed jet are connected with the time, with periodic wave structures generating in the flow field and moving downstream. The size of the wave structures and its distance are related to the frequency, namely the size and flow distance are relatively small at 50kHz, and it takes some time for the pulsed jet to establish its influence in the full flow field. At low frequencies, the flow field produces large fluctuations, and this may be detrimental to the stable operation of the engine.
脉冲射流是一种新颖有效的主动混合增强方法。对于超声速横流中的横向脉冲射流,采用三维reynolds -average Navier-Stokes (RANS)方程和SST k-ω湍流模型,研究了频率对脉冲射流的影响。考虑混合效率和射流穿透深度时,脉冲射流的平均流场性能优于稳态射流,特别是在脉冲频率为50kHz时。脉冲射流的流场结构与时间有关,在流场中产生周期波结构并向下游运动。波结构的大小和距离与频率有关,即在50kHz时,波结构的大小和流距离相对较小,脉冲射流在整个流场中建立其影响需要一段时间。在低频时,流场产生较大的波动,这可能不利于发动机的稳定运行。
