SUMMARY:Automatic landing performance of a civil aircraft in the presence o
 f vertical gusts
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Yaacov Eisenthal\n Faculty:Department of Aerospace Eng

 n:https://technion.zoom.us/j/94464769758\n Zoom: \n Abstract: \n Details: 
 \n The commercial aviation industry is motivated to continuously improve l
 anding performance without involving radical changes to aircraft design or
  operation. In the presence of strong gusts the landing is considered to b
 e one of the most complex and challenging maneuvers to perform correctly\,
  especially in large civil aircraft. It is a common knowledge that increas
 ing approach speed in gusty weather makes the task easier. In order to avo
 id the risk of runway overrun\, it is necessary to define what is the mini
 mal approach speed required for a particular gust profile and magnitude. I
 t also raises a question regarding the landing configuration: Can differen
 t flaps setting help?\nBoth of these questions are addressed using a reali
 stic 3DOF simulation of a DC-8 aircraft equipped with a generic automatic 
 landing system as well as an angle of attack (AOA) protection and throttle
  limiter. It was found that keeping the flaps fully extended and increasin
 g the approach speed is beneficial in gusty conditions. Furthermore\, a qu
 antitative guideline is provided using a vertical gust limitation mapped a
 s a function of selected approach speed.\nZoom Meeting
