Abstract

A possibility of evaluating dynamic response of a mechanical system to controlling actions of the automatic stabilization and control system is considered on the basis of a numerical experiment. Examples of design analysis are presented for a light-weight helicopter in which an autopilot is part of the control system. The finite element analysis is used in this paper.
