Description
Released in 2018, Introduction to Helicopter and Tiltrotor Flight Simulation, Second Edition built on the textbook’s 2007 first edition by presenting fundamentals of flight simulation, especially of rotorcraft, in a logical sequence of steps and providing MATLAB® source code for demonstration programs and to show how all the differentiated parts formed a working whole. This brand new Problem Solving Supplement further develops these concepts by demonstrating with examples a four-step method to solving unique problems: 1. What conditions do we have? This is the Given.2. What is the problem we wish to solve? This is the Find.3. What is impeding us; how are we going to overcome the obstacles? This is the Approach.4. With sharp vision of the task, what do we need to do to find our answer? This is the Solution.These questions organize a problem and hint at the solution. They help users collect thoughts and form a strategy.Whether familiar, unfamiliar, or novel, mathematical models are a vital part of the solution as they lay out methods for exploring rotors and rotorcraft. However, a practical solution also includes a realization in code. This text answers interesting problems with models and simulation codes that complete a lesson. Some models and codes address basic problems like numerical integration in time and space; other models and codes look at families of problems around fans and propellers. Across 34 chapters and six appendices, this text offers models and codes that show readers how to build rotor wake models that use the momentum theory or the Biot-Savart law to find answers to free-wake analysis or coaxial rotor analysis; primers on Linear Quadratic Regulation or Fuzzy Logic Regulation, which is demonstrated in standalone examples and installed in larger problem solutions; and a rotor code called BER (Blade Element Rotor), and a rotorcraft code called BERST (Blade Element Rotor and Strip Theory wings).The chapters in this supplement are more than just homework or reading assignments; they are significant, and the codes allow readers to “look behind the curtain” at how an advanced simulation brings together the individual parts to form a coherent whole.
