Abstract

The relationships between control allocation and PIO susceptibility of aircrafts with multiple control effectors are analyzed theoretically. Control allocation principles are presented in term of preventing PIO events. Time domain Neal-Smith (TDNS) criterion is selected to evaluate the PIO susceptibility. An optimal algorithm based on sequential quadratic programming (SQP) is used to obtain the parameters of pilot model in TDNS criterion. Aero-Data Model in Research Environment (ADMIRE) developed by FOI is taken as example, five different control allocation configurations are presented based on the control allocation principles for ADMIRE. The category II PIO susceptibility of ADMIRE with these five control allocation configurations is evaluated by TDNS criterion. The evaluation results indicate that the PIO susceptibility of aircrafts with multiple control effectors is affected by the control allocation configuration, the evaluation results accord with the control allocation principles, and the evaluation methodology can reflect the characteristics of PIO susceptibility of the controlled object.
