AN APPLICATION OF A DYNAMIC PILOT-MODEL TO SYSTEM DESIGN

Abstract

Design, evaluation, and integration of controls and displays for advanced flight vehicles present recurrent problems for the human engineer. This report presents a method for solving these on a fast-time analog computer and describes one application. The basic concept of this approach centers about the use of a dynamic model of the pilot which can be instrumented on the computer along with the airframe and flight control dynamics, thus permitting design and evaluation of the total closed loop system during the early design phase.
