About this Item

: Este libro ofrece un tratamiento exhaustivo sobre el diseño de lógica de control automático para naves espaciales y aeronaves. El autor, Arthur E. Bryson, describe el método del regulador lineal-cuadrático (LQR) para la síntesis de control por retroalimentación, permitiendo coordinar múltiples controles y lograr maniobras precisas comparables a las de un piloto experto.La primera parte de la obra se centra en el control de actitud de naves espaciales rígidas y flexibles, abordando el uso de volantes de inercia, propulsores y motores articulados. La segunda parte se dedica al control de actitud y trayectoria de vuelo de aeronaves, incluyendo diseños de piloto automático para diversas fases de vuelo, control de helicópteros y estabilización de inestabilidades aeroelásticas, con un fuerte énfasis en el modelado matemático necesario para sistemas de control eficaces.

About this title

Synopsis

Here a leading researcher provides a comprehensive treatment of the design of automatic control logic for spacecraft and aircraft. In this book Arthur Bryson describes the linear-quadratic-regulator (LQR) method of feedback control synthesis, which coordinates multiple controls, producing graceful maneuvers comparable to those of an expert pilot.


The first half of the work is about attitude control of rigid and flexible spacecraft using momentum wheels, spin, fixed thrusters, and gimbaled engines. Guidance for nearly circular orbits is discussed. The second half is about aircraft attitude and flight path control. This section discusses autopilot designs for cruise, climb-descent, coordinated turns, and automatic landing. One chapter deals with controlling helicopters near hover, and another offers an introduction to the stabilization of aeroelastic instabilities. Throughout the book there is a strong emphasis on the mathematical modeling necessary for designing a good feedback control system. The appendixes summarize analysis of linear dynamic systems, synthesis of analog and digital feedback control, simulation, and modeling of flexible vehicles.
