It provides introductory material on flight dynamics and control to provide the context, and then describes in detail the geometry of the problem. The book includes a large section on solution methods, including 'Banks' method', a previously unpublished procedure. Generalized inverses are also discussed at length. There is an introductory section on linear programming solutions, as well as an extensive and comprehensive appendix dedicated to linear programming formulations and solutions. Discrete-time, or frame-wise allocation, is presented, including rate-limiting, nonlinear data, and preferred solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey features:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWritten by pioneers in the field of control allocation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eComprehensive explanation and discussion of the major control allocation solution methods.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExtensive treatment of linear programming solutions to control allocation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA companion web site contains the code of a MATLAB\/Simulink flight simulation with modules that incorporate all of the major solution methods.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes examples based on actual aircraft.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book is a vital reference for researchers and practitioners working in aircraft control, as well as graduate students in aerospace engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47078317752560,"sku":"9781118827772","price":146.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781118827772_p0.jpg?v=1769889728","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781118827772","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
