(2023) An investigation of control allocation methods for the ADMIRE simulation model. In: 2023 AIAA Aviation and Aeronautics Forum and Exposition (AIAA AVIATION Forum), 12-16 June 2023, San Diego, USA. Paper number AIAA 2023-3911978-1-62410-704-7https://doi.org/10.2514/6.2023-3911https://dspace.lib.cranfield.ac.uk/handle/1826/20167This paper presents a comparative study of various control allocation methods, using ADMIRE as a benchmark simulation model. The Ganged Pseudo-Inverse, Weighted Pseudo-Inverse, Cascaded Generalized-Inverse, Daisy Chain, and Linear Programming approaches are evaluated and compared against each other using open loop and closed loop analysis with Euclidean-Norm. In open-loop analysis, control allocation methods are analyzed for each approach that can produce an admissible solution and be able to attain commanded moments. Then, in closed-loop analysis, control allocation methods are compared using ADMIRE nonlinear simulation model for predefined maneuvers which are defined by multiple points in the flight envelope.enAttribution-NonCommercial 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/Conference paper
