Integral Control of Large Flexible Aircraft

Abstract

In a flexible aircraft flight control, load control and structural mode control interfere with each other. Therefore, an integral design of controller(s) is necessary. This paper describes how an integral aircraft model covering the requirements of all three disciplines can be derived and how an integral controller can be designed by multiobjective parameter optimization. General design criteria for mode control are proposed.
