1 UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SANTA CRUZ BOARD OF STUDIES IN COMPUTER ENGINEERING CMPE 4: INTRODUCTION TO LINEAR DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS Gabriel Hugh Elkaim Fall 5 longitudinal aircraft dynamics wind gust & control inputs linearized dynamics steady-state analysis eigenvalues & modes impulse matrices Aircraft Dynamics Example Longitudinal aircraft dynamics frag replacements θ body axis horizontal variables are (small) deviations from operating point or trim conditions state (components): u: velocity of aircraft along body axis v: velocity of aircraft perpendicular to body axis (down is positive) θ: angle between body axis and horizontal (up is positive) q = θ: angular velocity of aircraft (pitch rate)

2 Inputs disturbance inputs: u w : velocity of wind along body axis v w : velocity of wind perpendicular to body axis control or actuator inputs: δ e : elevator angle (δ e > is down) δ t : thrust 3 Linearized dynamics for 747, level flight, 4 ft, 774 ft/sec, u v q θ = units: ft, sec, crad (=.rad.57 ) [ ] δe δ t matrix coefficients are called stability derivatives outputs of interest: aircraft speed u (deviation from trim) climb rate ḣ = v θ u u w v v w q θ 4 Steady-state analysis DC gain from (u w, v w, δ e, δ t ) to (u, ḣ): H() = CA B = [ ] gives steady-state change in speed & climb rate due to wind, elevator & thrust changes solve for control variables in terms of wind velocities, desired speed & climb rate [ ] [ ] [ ] δe u uw = δ t..43 ḣ + v w

3 level flight, increase in speed is obtained mostly by increasing elevator (i.e., downwards) constant speed, increase in climb rate is obtained by increasing thrust and increasing elevator (i.e., downwards) (thrust on 747 gives strong pitch up torque) 5 Eigenvalues and modes eigenvalues are.375 ±.888j,.5 ±.674j two complex modes, called short-period and phugoid, respectively system is stable (but lightly damped) hence step responses converge (eventually) to DC gain matrix eigenvectors are x short = x phug = ± j ± j , 6 Short-period mode y(t) = Ce ta (Rx short ) (pure short-period mode motion).5 u(t) ḣ(t)
