Use of Flight Simulation in Early Design: Formulation and Application of the Virtual Testing and Evaluation Method
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2000-10)
In current design practices, safety, operational and han-dling criteria are often overlooked until late design stages due to the difficulty in capturing such criteria early enough in the design cycle and in the presence ...
Probabilistic Assessment of Handling Qualities Constraints in Aircraft Preliminary Design
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 1998-01)
A method is introduced and demonstrated which uses parametric stability derivative data (in the form of regression equations) and probabilistic analysis techniques to evaluate the impact of uncertainty on the handling ...
Implementation of a Physics-Based Decision-Making Framework for Evaluation of the Multidisciplinary Aircraft Uncertainty
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2003-09)
In today's business climate, aerospace companies
are more than ever in need of rational methods and
techniques that provide insights as to the best
strategies which may be pursued for increased
profitability and risk ...
A Probabilistic Approach to UCAV Engine Sizing
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 1998-07)
This paper describes a probabilistic approach to aircraft engine thrust sizing which is intended to assist the designer in making decisions during the very early stages of the design process when the operational concept ...

A Stochastic Approach to Designing Affordable, Environmentally Acceptable Systems
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2002-01)
The objective of this paper is to give an overview of current research thrusts focused on meeting the challenges associated with designing complex systems. Such systems must be capable of simultaneously meeting future needs ...
Assessing the Impact of Mission Requirements, Vehicle Attributes, Technologies and Uncertainty in Rotorcraft System Design
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2002-06)
This research provides a probabilistic design environment for the propagation of design uncertainty to the system level to assist in making more educated decisions in the early stages of design. This design uncertainty is ...
Use of Probabilistics in Campaign Analysis
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2001-09)
Significant advances have been made recently in applying probabilistic methods to aerospace vehicle concepts. Given the explosive changes that are occurring in todays political, social, and technological climate, it makes ...
Commercial Engine Architecture Selection in the Presence of Uncertainty and Evolving Requirements
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2001-09)
The objective of this paper is to discuss a few challenges foreseeable for future aircraft engine designs and briefly survey ongoing research that addresses these challenges. Emphasis is placed on methods for selecting ...
