The flight control actuation system has not only a large number of components, but also a large number of combinations. At the same time, the design of flight control actuation system architecture is facing higher challenges. In recent years, the higher demand for the economy and safety promotes the development of more electrical aircraft (MEA) and all electrical aircraft (AEA). The architecture of flight control actuation system is a combination of redundant flight computers, power sources, control surfaces, actuators. The function of actuation system is to control the flight attitude by operating the aircraft aileron, elevator, rudder, flap, slit and spoiler. This method deals with the problem in the design of flight control actuation system.įlight control actuation system with high performance and high reliability is an important guarantee of air safety, which has great significance to the development of large passenger aircraft and transport aircraft. At the same time, the optimal architecture is found in less than 30 minutes among 10 75 candidates, which greatly reduces the design cycle. Compared to the traditional hydraulic architecture, the optimal architecture is more competitive in weight, power and cost. Furthermore, within the paper a case study for A350 flight control actuation system is presented to testify the application of this methodology.

And the design method is implemented in python and a software platform is developed. This study proposes an intelligent design method which has steps of design space exploration of actuation system architectures by constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) method, safety assessment process to exclude unsafety solution, multi-objectives optimization to get Pareto optimal front and comprehensive decision for final architecture via analytic hierarchy process. Therefore, the need for new methodology for actuation system architecture design emerges. It is impossible to determine optimal architecture by traditional trial-and-error method within acceptable time. The task is to find the combinations of power sources, actuators and computers, which becomes more complex because of the new power sources and actuator types of more electrical aircraft. These stand respectively for the love of truth, for the love of good, and for the love of beauty.The design of flight control actuation system is facing major challenge due to the development of more electrical aircraft. “For the universe has three children, born at one time, which reappear, under different names, in every system of thought, whether they be called cause, operation, and effect or, more poetically, Jove, Pluto, Neptune or, theologically, the Father, the Spirit, and the Son but which we will call here, the Knower, the Doer, and the Sayer. “The awareness that health is dependent upon habits that we control makes us the first generation in history that to a large extent determines its own destiny. From rustling leaves she came in the course of ages to the loftier flight and clear carol of the bird. The hawk which now takes his flight over the top of the wood was at first, perchance, only a leaf which fluttered in its aisles. One would say that it was no great stretch of invention to create birds. “In all her products, Nature only develops her simplest germs. A man cannot utter two or three sentences, without disclosing to intelligent ears precisely where he stands in life and thought, namely, whether in the kingdom of the senses and the understanding, or, in that of ideas and imagination, in the realm of intuitions and duty. “He is a strong man who can hold down his opinion.
