Series/Event Type


Aircraft system identification involves the determination of dynamic models from measured flight data. Recently, the Journal of Aircraft published a special issue in which authors summarized advances in aircraft system identification made at their institutions over the last 20 years. This talk discusses some of those advances made at NASA Langley Research Center. Examples include X­planes, hypersonic and launch vehicles, aeroelastic aircraft and wind tunnel test articles, and subscale demonstrators. 

Speaker Bio
