Numeryczna symulacja programowej realizacji figur akrobacji lotniczej

Wojciech Blajer

Examples of numerical simulation of some aerobatic maneouvres are presented. The program flights are modelled using some constraints imposed on an aircraft trajectory, a aircraft angular orientation in the space and a speed history. Histories of the state parameter variations and the demanded control are obtained. An emphasis is laid on the trajectory path description by means of a succesion-of-points. A spline function smoothing is applied for interpolation and approximation formulas.
