artificial feel of control
1artificial feel — A type of force feedback that is used in aircraft fitted with power controls or automatic flight control systems. Artificial feel produces an opposing force to the movement of the controls. This opposing force may be proportional to the amount of …
2feel system — The mechanism by which the control feel is augmented, improved, or simulated artificially rather than by the aerodynamic forces on the control surfaces. One method of providing feel is by having an artificial feel system. In the above figure,… …
3feel — An expression used to describe a pilot’s reaction when using an aircraft control. If the control is power operated or power assisted, an artificial feel is usually put on the control stick to give the pilot a correct impression of the effect of… …
4Artificial intelligence — AI redirects here. For other uses, see Ai. For other uses, see Artificial intelligence (disambiguation). TOPIO, a humanoid robot, played table tennis at Tokyo International Robot Exhibition (IREX) 2009.[1] Artificial intelligence ( …
5Artificial limb — An artificial limb is a type of prosthesis that replaces a missing extremity, such as arms or legs. The type of artificial limb used is determined largely by the extent of an amputation or loss and location of the missing extremity. Artificial… …
6Aircraft flight control systems — consist of flight control surfaces, the respective cockpit controls, connecting linkages, and the necessary operating mechanisms to control an aircraft s direction in flight. Aircraft engine controls are also considered as flight controls as they …
7spring feel — An artificial feel system in which springs are incorporated. The movement of controls compresses or extends the springs and provides the pilot with a control force that is dependent on the strength of the spring and the quantum of control… …
8progressive feel — A type of artificial feel system in a flight control system in which the artificial feel is proportional to the dynamic pressure experienced by the controls. See also artificial feel …
9Flight control modes (electronic) — New aircraft designs like this Boeing 777 rely on sophisticated flight computers to aid and protect the aircraft in flight. These are governed by computational laws which assign flight control modes during flight Aircraft with fly by wire flight… …
10g-feel — An artificial feel system in which the control stick forces increase proportionally to the increase in applied g, preventing excessive g application during maneuvers …
