Manned Engineering Flight Simulation Validation. Part II. Software User's Guide.

Abstract

The goal of this research is to establish an orderly, relatively simple method for optimizing the presentation of motion cues in moving base simulations. This is accomplished via choice of the drive logic parameters for a given simulator and flying task. The method developed here is based upon use of motion fidelity criteria. It has been applied to optimize the LAMARS motion base drive logic parameters for an air-to-ground scenario. The methods and procedures can be applied for any given motion base and any desired scenario. This report describes the FORTRAN computer program used for evaluating and optimizing motion base drive logic.
