State Estimation Applications in Aircraft Flight-Data Analysis: A User's Manual for Smack

AUTHOR Nasa, National Aeronautics and Space Adm
PUBLISHER Independently Published (11/17/2018)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description
The evolution in the use of state estimation is traced for the analysis of aircraft flight data. A unifying mathematical framework for state estimation is reviewed, and several examples are presented that illustrate a general approach for checking instrument accuracy and data consistency, and for estimating variables that are difficult to measure. Recent applications associated with research aircraft flight tests and airline turbulence upsets are described. A computer program for aircraft state estimation is discussed in some detail. This document is intended to serve as a user's manual for the program called SMACK (SMoothing for AirCraft Kinematics). The diversity of the applications described emphasizes the potential advantages in using SMACK for flight-data analysis. Bach, Ralph E., Jr. Ames Research Center COMPUTER PROGRAMS; DATA SMOOTHING; KINEMATICS; POSTFLIGHT ANALYSIS; STATE ESTIMATION; TURBULENCE; USER MANUALS (COMPUTER PROGRAMS); AIRLINE OPERATIONS; FLIGHT TESTS; RESEARCH AIRCRAFT...
