On the Issue of Increasing the Stability and Controllability of Aircraft of Non-Traditional Schemes When Moving on the Ground

Abstract

The research proposes an approach to solving the problems of stability and controllability of aircraft of the aerodynamic scheme "flying wing" in terms of movement on the ground, which consists in combining landing gear systems into an automatic integrated control contour. The analysis of peculiarities of movement on the ground is carried out, disadvantages and limits of application of available control methods are specified. Development of a dynamic aircraft model for virtual testing of control algorithms is described. The conclusion is made about practical advantages that are expected to be obtained because of the introduction of the integrated control contour of landing gear systems. Are additional possibilities of the proposed approach: in addition to using on unmanned aerial vehicles to operate in automatic control mode, the development can be used on manned and remotely piloted aircraft as an auxiliary system that helps the pilot to withstand the take-off and run direction under random energetic disturbing influences, similar to that used on modern cars of assisting systems such as ESP (Electronic Stability Program) -electronic dynamic stabilization system.
