Summary
The major objective of the GARTEUR Action Group on Analysis Techniques for Clearance of Flight Control Laws FM(AG-11) is the improvement of the flight clearance process by increased automation of the tools used for model-based analysis of the aircraft’s dynamical behaviour. What is finally needed are techniques for faster detection of the worst case combination of parameter values and manoeuvre cases, from which the flight clearance restrictions are be derived. The basis for such an analysis are accurate mathematical models of the controlled aircraft. In this chapter the HIRM+ flight dynamics model is described as one of the benchmark military aircraft models used within FM(AG-11). HIRM+ originates from the HIRM (High Incidence Research Model) developed within the GARTEUR Action Group on Robust Flight Control FM(AG-08). In building the HIRM+, additional emphasis has been put on realistic modelling of parametric uncertainties.
The work on this project was conducted while the author was employed at DLR, Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics, Oberpfaffenhofen, 82234 Wessling, Germany
