Conventional Human Factors/Ergonomics (HF/E) approaches in aviation concentrate on the product's or system's utility and underestimates the power of the users' feelings. By a majority, HF/E emphasizes on ease of access, human performance, human error, workload and situation awareness, which are related with the functional features of the system, without emotional interactions. However, it is now clear that the success of the product in the market comes from its aesthetic appeal and the affect it creates on the users; the interaction between the user and the designed artifact is impressed by emotions. There has been a growing interest in research of industrial design, engineering design, psychology, neuroscience, and human factors engineering to affect and pleasure. There is a shift from cognitive perspective to affective, which concerns promoting pleasure instead of preventing pain (workload, error, etc.) resulting by the design. There are many studies in the literature focused on the consumer products. However, complex systems like aviation industry where performance and safety is the main point, is still impassive to affective design, the theoretical constructs related to affective design have been poorly defined. Affective considerations might provide a new and different perspective in aviation human factors. This study will present the importance of affective human factors in aviation and purposes some suggestions to reflect affective design to cockpit design. © 2017 by American Helicopter Society International, Inc.

Adaptive control of guided missiles
Tiryaki Kutluay, Kadriye; Yavrucuk, İlkay; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2011)
This thesis presents applications and an analysis of various adaptive control augmentation schemes to various baseline flight control systems of an air to ground guided missile. The missile model used in this research has aerodynamic control surfaces on its tail section. The missile is desired to make skid to turn maneuvers by following acceleration commands in the pitch and yaw axis, and by keeping zero roll attitude. First, a linear quadratic regulator baseline autopilot is designed for the control of the...

Real-Time Attitude Independent Calibration of Spinning Spacecraft Magnetometers Using Quasi-Measurements
Cetin, Mustafa Efe; Söken, Halil Ersin; Sakai, Shin-ichiro (2022-11-01)
Magnetometers are essential sensors for attitude estimation in small spacecraft due to their robust, inexpensive, and lightweight characteristics. However, the raw measurements contain sensor errors. These errors degrade the attitude estimation accuracy. This study proposes a complete real-time attitude-independent magnetometer calibration algorithm for spinning spacecraft. The recursive algorithm aims to estimate the full error state, bias, scale factor, and non-orthogonality corrections in real-time and w...
Fault Tolerant Attitude Estimation for Small Satellites
Söken, Halil Ersin (CRC, New York , 2020-12-01)
Small satellites use commercial off-the-shelf sensors and actuators for attitude determination and control (ADC) to reduce the cost. These sensors and actuators are usually not as robust as the available, more expensive, space-proven equipment. As a result, the ADC system of small satellites is more vulnerable to any fault compared to a system for larger competitors. This book aims to present useful solutions for fault tolerance in ADC systems of small satellites. The contents of the book can ...
Experimental investigation of morphing wing aerodynamics by force measurements and particle image velocimetry
Özçakmak, Özge Sinem; Özgen, Serkan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2015)
Recently, new developments in on manufacturing technologies, aircraft materials, sensors, actuators, and other mechanisms raised the interest in morphing wings. Instead of conventional wings, which are optimized only for one flight condition, morphing wings can adapt themselves for different missions, mission segments and associated flight conditions. The focus of this thesis is the experimental analysis of a morphing wing, the planform and airfoil shapes that were made available from a separate numerical s...
