Vertical Avoidance and Recovery Analysis of a General Aircraft in Near Mid-Air Collision Scenarios Using Design and Analysis of Computer Experiments |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Scenarios with mid-air collision events require complex studies where the aircraft may fly on the edge of their flight envelope. This problem is not only limited to the maneuver since the recovery might lead the system to an unstable state if the performance is critical. Design and analysis of computer experiments (DACE) by using the uniform design (UD) experimental method represent a tool to study the performance of the aircraft without the full analysis of the dynamics of flight. In a specific simulation context described in this paper, encounters between two representative general aircraft, a Cessna 172 and a Twin Otter, in a Phi (φ) maneuver are simulated. From the encounters, a diving avoidance maneuver is developed in a mid-air collision circumstance. The recovery is later observed and analyzed when the aircraft remains in a safe area while it waits for the thread to be removed. Assuming that the computer model is accurate and the simulation stable, the metamodel using UD provides an optimal combination of commands for all the scenarios with a minimum discrepancy. The implications of this paper are seen in the flexibility of this method owing to its adaptability to fit any computer model and simulation scenario. This feature is currently being used to study unmanned aerial vehicles and their interactions with other human-piloted aircraft in the same environment with the purpose of developing critical avoidance maneuvers. |
