Public award description

IGF::OT::IGF INTEGRATE A COMMERCIAL TRANSPORT MODEL AND GENERIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEM WITH SAFE-CUE AND SUPPORT THE MODEL INTEGRATION WITH THE NASA AMES-DEVELOPED LOSS OF CONTROL PREDICTION TECHNOLOGY. THE GENERIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEM WILL BE DEFINED FROM PREVIOUS WORK CONDUCTED BY STI AND NASA. STI HAS EXAMPLE DESIGNS THAT HAVE BEEN USED IN RECENT STUDIES FOR THE FAA, WHILE NASA HAS EXAMPLE DESIGNS FROM PAST AND ONGOING AVIATION SAFETY PROGRAM EFFORTS. IN COLLABORATION WITH NASA, DEFINE LOC TEST SCENARIOS (FLIGHT CONDITIONS, TASKS, ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS, AIRCRAFT FAILURE/DAMAGE, ETC.) FOR THE EVALUATION OF THE LOSS OF CONTROL MITIGATION SYSTEMS VIA PILOTED SIMULATION IN THE NASA AMES VERTICAL MOTION SIMULATOR. SUPPORT THE INTEGRATION OF NASA AMES-DEVELOPED LOSS OF CONTROL PREDICTION TECHNOLOGY WITH THE STI SAFE-CUE FORCE FEEDBACK CUEING AND ADAPTIVE COMMAND PATH GAIN TECHNOLOGY. PILOT STUDIES USING THE STI FIXED BASE SIMULATOR WILL BE CONDUCTED TO EVALUATE AND REFINE SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS. DEVELOP COCKPIT DISPLAY WARNING SYSTEMS TO TAKE FURTHER ADVANTAGE OF THE PREDICTIVE CAPABILITIES OF THE NASA AND STI SYSTEMS. SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF A COORDINATED PILOTED SIMULATION TEST PLAN FOR MOTION BASE EVALUATIONS OF THE NASA AND STI TECHNOLOGY AT THE NASA AMES VERTICAL MOTION SIMULATOR.
