Abstract:

A time domain computer simulation of the roll loop for the YF-16 control system is developed using the Advanced Continuous Simulation Language ACSL. Using stability derivatives developed during frequency domain studies, the time domain simulation results in excellent agreement, although slightly unconservative, with experienced in-flight instabilities.
