  1. 6. Design of the control system for a powered landing maneuver of a rocket

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Davide Demartini; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The powered soft landing of a spacecraft represents a maneuver with high interest, withsome private launcher companies – SpaceX, Blue Origin, Rocket Factory Augsburg, etc. - showinginterest in implementing it as a solution for their launchers, and several national agenciesusing it for the exploration of celestial bodies where it may be the only option.

  3. 7. An Evaluative Study on the Impact of Immersion and Presence for Flight Simulators in XR

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Robin Dahlkvist; [2023]
    Keywords : Extended reality; Mixed reality; Immersion; Presence; Simulator sickness; Extended reality; Mixed reality; Immersion; Närvaro; Simulatorsjuka;

    Abstract : Flight simulators are a central training method for pilots and with the advances of human-computer interaction, new cutting-edge technology introduces a new type of simulator using extended reality (XR). XR is an umbrella term for many representative forms of realities, where physical reality (PR) and virtual reality (VR) are the endpoints of this spectrum, and any reality in between can be seen as mixed reality (MR).

  4. 8. Feedback Linearization for Model Agnostic Aircraft Simulation Control

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Fredrik Horn; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a method, based on feedback linearization, for controlling a general 3-degree-of-freedom simulation model of an aircraft. Only aircraft models that utilize Taylor approximations of the aerodynamic coefficients are considered. READ MORE

  5. 9. Recreating optimized airplane boarding methods using real-time Crowd Simulation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Oscar Olsson; Tim Rundström; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Flight delays are costly for both airline companies and the environment. A possible resolution to minimize delays is to facilitate the airplane’s boarding process. Studies have to be conducted in order to find the optimal boarding method. Instead of performing experiments in the real-world, a crowd simulation could possibly be utilized. READ MORE

  6. 10. Airspeed estimation of aircraft using two different models and nonlinear observers

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Alexander Roser; Anton Thunberg; [2023]
    Keywords : sensor fusion; flight mechanics; Kalman filter; extended Kalman filter; unscented Kalman filter; pitot tube; airspeed estimation; simulation;

    Abstract : When operating an aircraft, inaccurate measurements can have devastating consequences. For example, when measuring airspeed using a pitot tube, icing effects and other faults can result in erroneous measurements. READ MORE
