Working student (d/f/m) Automatic Takeoff and Landing Controller for Fighter Aircraft Offline Simulation
Job Description:
Are you looking for a working student (d/f/m) job? Would you like to discover the work within Flight Dynamics? Then apply now! We look forward to you joining us as an working student (d/f/m)
Location: Manching
Start: as soon as possible
Our Mission
In order to assure safe operations of an aircraft, it is important to focus the clearance activities not only on maneuvering during the mission segment but to cover the terminal flight phases, i.e. take-off and landing, as well. Especially the transition from air to ground can be a challenging task for the pilot e.g. if strong crosswinds act on the aircraft. This is why the clearance activities usually incorporate manned landing simulations under most adverse conditions. Manned simulation obviously can only take place in real-time, has a notable overhead for preparation, and the availability of slots for such sessions is rather limited. Hence, having a good understanding of the question, which configurations or conditions are most critical, is decisive.
The advertised work is intended to contribute to that understanding by enabling a more extensive pre-assessment of configurations and conditions based on offline simulation ahead of manned simulation via the implementation of an automatic takeoff and landing controller for the existing simulation model of a fighter aircraft. The development model will be in MATLAB/Simulink but the suggested controller algorithm shall allow for code generation in order to be able to deploy it to the operational model.
