So far, the aeronautical industry has developed flight simulators and space disorientation with high costs. This chapter focuses on the design and implementation process of a low-cost real-time flight simulator for the training of armed force pilots using mathematical models of flight physics. To address such concern, the mathematical models of a Cessna type aircraft have been developed. This has been followed by a flight simulator, which operated with a new construction using a Stewart scale platform and operated by a joystick. Specifically, the simulator has been developed using an approximation of a physical cyber-system and a mechatronic design methodology that consists of mechanical, electrical and electronic elements that control the Stewart platform with three degrees of freedom. Based on software engineering, the algorithms of mathematical and physical models have been developed. These have been used to create an interactive flight simulator of an aircraft based on the Unity 3D game engine platform. The performance of the algorithms has been evaluated, using threads and processes to handle the communication and data transmission of the flight simulator to the Stewart platform. The evaluation of the developed simulator has been validated with professional pilots drilled with the Microsoft Flight Simulator. The results demonstrated that this flight simulator stimulates the development of skills and abilities for the maneuver and control of an aircraft.

Simulation Integrated Management: A new type of simulation platform application for aerospace systems engineering

In this paper, we propose a new simulation platform called SIM (Simulation Integrated Management) for analyzing parallel and distributed systems in the aerospace domain. This platform aims to test parallel and distributed architectures and applications. The main characteristics of SIM are its flexibility, scalability, and expandability. SIM has five management functions: model, experiment, distribution, operation, and node management functions. To improve the efficiency of project development, new sub-functionalities and assistive tools were designed for aerospace system simulation missions combined with SIM. Finally, a validation process and evaluation tests were developed and conducted, respectively, to evaluate the SIM simulator. SIM will become an excellent simulation platform with intelligence, versatility, and flexibility, laying the foundation for further validations of autonomy technology used in researches in the aerospace systems engineering domain.

“…Many studies and integration simulations are elements of the Airbus industrial process, 11 but the different models are proprietary (and sometimes certified) as well as the run-time infrastructure (RTI). Previous works focused on the DDS standard for a flight simulator basis 12 or the HLA standard. 13 In Huiskamp et al 14 and Kuijpers et al, 15 the authors describe a comprehensive methodology to enable the interoperability between various components for the development of simulators.…”

Real-time distributed simulations in an HLA framework: Application to aircraft simulation

et al. 2014

This paper presents some ongoing research carried out in the context of the PRISE Project (Research Platform for Embedded Systems Engineering). This platform has been designed to evaluate and validate new embedded system concepts and techniques through a special hardware and software environment. Since much actual embedded equipment is not available, corresponding behavior is simulated within a high-level architecture (HLA) federation implemented with a run-time infrastructure (RTI) called CERTI and developed at ONERA. HLA is currently largely used in many simulation applications, but the limited performances of the RTIs raise doubts over the feasibility of HLA federations with real-time requirements. This paper addresses the problem of achieving real-time performances with the HLA standard. Several experiments are discussed using well-known aircraft simulators such as Microsoft Flight Simulator, FlightGear, and X-plane connected with the CERTI RTI. The added value of these activities is to demonstrate that according to a set of innovative solutions, HLA architecture is well suited to achieve hard real-time constraints. Finally, a formal model guaranteeing the schedulability of concurrent processes is also proposed.
