The gears are critical to the transmission system that provides propulsion, lift and maneuvering of the helicopter. This paper reviews techniques used to process vibration data to calculate conditions indicators (CI's), guidelines used by the government aviation authorities in developing and certifying the Health and Usage Monitoring System (HUMS), condition and health indicators used in commercial HUMS, and different methods used to set thresholds to detect damage. Initial assessment of a method to set thresholds for vibration based condition indicators applied to flight and test rig data by evaluating differences in distributions between comparable transmissions are also discussed. Gear condition indicator FM4 values are compared on an OH58 helicopter during 14 maneuvers and an OH58 transmission test stand during crack propagation tests. Preliminary results show the distributions between healthy helicopter and rig data are comparable and distributions between healthy and damaged gears show significant differences.","PeriodicalId":6295,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE Aerospace Conference","volume":"12 1","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78300964","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}

Requirements of advanced RPSs include high efficiency and high specific power (watts/kilogram) in order to meet future mission requirements with less radioisotope fuel and lower mass so that these systems can meet requirements for a variety of future space applications, including continual operation surface missions, outer-planetary missions, and solar probe. These advances would enable a factor of 2 to 4 decrease in the amount of fuel required to generate electrical power. Advanced RPS development goals also include long-life, reliability, and scalability. This paper provides an update on the contractual efforts under the Radioisotope Power Conversion Technology (RPCT) NASA Research Announcement (NRA) for research and development of Stirling, thermoelectric, and thermophotovoltaic power conversion technologies. The paper summarizes the current RPCT NRA efforts with a brief description of the effort, a status and/or summary of the contractor's key accomplishments, a discussion of upcoming plans, and a discussion of relevant system-level benefits and implications. The paper also provides a general discussion of the benefits from the development of these advanced power conversion technologies and the eventual payoffs to future missions (discussing system benefits due to overall improvements in efficiency, specific power, etc.).","PeriodicalId":6295,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE Aerospace Conference","volume":"19 1","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82606386","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}

Here a study of multi-sensor terrain classification for planetary rovers in Mars and Mars-like environments is presented. Two classification algorithms for color, texture, and range features are presented based on maximum likelihood estimation and support vector machines. In addition, a classification method based on vibration features derived from rover wheel-terrain interaction is briefly described. Two techniques for merging the results of these \"low-level\" classifiers are presented that rely on Bayesian fusion and meta-classifier fusion. The performance of these algorithms is studied using images from NASA's mars exploration rover mission and through experiments on a four-wheeled test-bed rover operating in Mars-analog terrain. It is shown that accurate terrain classification can be achieved via classifier fusion from visual and tactile features.","PeriodicalId":6295,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE Aerospace Conference","volume":"116 8 1","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81906109","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}

However, continual changes induce uncertainty that limits the applicability of conventional validation techniques to assure the reliable performance of such systems. In this paper, we present several advanced methods proposed for verification and validation (V&V) of adaptive control systems, including Lyapunov analysis, statistical inference, and comparison to the well-known Kalman filters. We also discuss two monitoring tools for two types of neural networks employed in the NASA F-15 flight control system as adaptive learners: the confidence tool for the outputs of a Sigma-Pi network, and the validity index for the output of a Dynamic Cell Structure (DCS) network.","PeriodicalId":6295,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE Aerospace Conference","volume":"59 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85778475","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}

The goal of this approach is to provide a lightweight tool that allows project managers to apply earned value performance measurements with minimal effort in terms of data entry, and without the need to learn the highly specialized jargon that mystifies many EVM solutions. The presented technical and managerial solution addresses the practical challenges of applying EVM in the messy realm of project management. An empirical case study involving five projects at the NASA Ames Research Center illustrates the challenges of creating a consistent performance measurement baseline under the constraints of schedule, budget, and labor requirements, and of matching actual costs with budgeted costs on the level of granularity needed. The case study also highlights the benefits of using the implemented EVM solution in terms of data quality and time savings. The paper concludes with general recommendations for the design and application of EVM tools with the focus on ease of use.","PeriodicalId":6295,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE Aerospace Conference","volume":"31 6 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81716017","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}

The limitation is circumvented to some extent by the incorporation of parameterized models in the filter, with simultaneous on-line learning of model parameters, but frequently, identification of an appropriate parametric model is extremely difficult. This paper addresses this problem, describing an algorithm that combines kernel recursive least squares and particle filtering to learn a functional approximation for the measurement mechanism whilst generating state estimates. The paper focuses on the specific scenario when a training period exists during which supplementary measurements are available from a source that can be accurately modelled. Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm, which requires very little information about the true measurement mechanism, can approach the performance of a particle filter equipped with the correct observation model.","PeriodicalId":6295,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE Aerospace Conference","volume":"7 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85426521","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}

To deliver the rover for precision touchdown landing, it requires a new Entry, Descent, and Landing (EDL) approach using hypersonic aeromaneuver guided entry and skycrane-based powered descent and landing. The skycrane system is capable of efficiently and safely landing a large payload on Mars using a propulsion system configured into a descent stage. The rover will be released from the descent stage via descent-rate-limiter umbilical device and then placed directly onto the surface of Mars. As required by the skycrane landing architecture, the MSL rover is designed as a \"lander\" to survive touchdown as well as traverse environments. Since it is difficult, costly and, in many cases, impossible to test the skycrane descent and landing system in Mars-like environments, the MSL project relies heavily on dynamic simulations to validate the skycrane landing concept and predict the landing loads and stability of the rover. As a result, a multi-year extensive Loads and Stability Analysis Program has been conducted to develop seamless and robust simulations of the complicated skycrane landing dynamics with a large set of environmental parameters. This paper describes the overall approaches to the MSL touchdown simulation effort, landing loads and stability analysis, rover developmental test program, and applications of both the analysis and testing results to a mass-efficient and landing-capable rover structure design.","PeriodicalId":6295,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE Aerospace Conference","volume":"23 1","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75167677","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}

The ability to implement math-intensive signal processing and control algorithms on simple, integer-only hardware would greatly increase the avionics system designer's options. This paper presents a methodology and software tool for generating fixed point computations, enabling integer-only processors to achieve numerical accuracy comparable to floating point, faster and with reduced size, weight, cost, and power consumption.
