Abstract

Aiming at the flight safety problems caused by the aircraft control surface failure, a control distributor for multi control surface aircraft is designed to deal with the typical failure modes of aircraft rudder surface, such as locked, floating and damaged, with the purpose of improving aircraft safety. In this paper, the control distributor is designed by transforming the different fault types into different virtual instructions and combining with the residual control allocation matrix. Based on the F-16 scale model, the simulations of the fault reconstruction algorithm under the three conditions of locked rudder surface, floating rudder surface and damaged rudder surface are carried out, so that the three-axis angle rates and control surface responses can be obtained. The simulation results are compared with the results without fault reconstruction, and the simulation results show that the fault reconstruction method is reasonable and effective, the fault reconstruction method proposed in this paper has certain engineering application value.
