Flight envelope protection using flap hinge moment measurement
An experimental investigation of the sensitivity of flap hinge moment to airfoil surface contamination was conducted at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Aerodynamics Research Lab. Tests were conducted on two airfoil models, an NACA 3415 and an NACA 23012, at Reynolds numbers of 1.8 × …

Aircraft loss-of-control prevention via backup flight control law design and flight envelope protection
… loss-of-control problem by adaptive backup flight control law design and flight envelope protection for aircraft with physical damage. In the first part of the study, a backup lateral-directional flight control law for mid-sized transport aircraft with vertical-tail damage is proposed. In …

Improved gust rejection for a micro coaxial helicopter in urban environments
… on the same order of magnitude as the maximum flight speeds of micro rotorcraft leading to stall, large attitude perturbations, and loss of control; thus preventing micro rotorcraft from carrying out even the most basic missions. This dissertation starts to fill the void in the literature on …
