Finite state machine control for aircraft electrical distribution system (2019)
Journal Article
Spagnolo, C., Sumsurooah, S., Hill, C. I., & Bozhko, S. (2019). Finite state machine control for aircraft electrical distribution system. Journal of Engineering, 2018(13), 506-511. https://doi.org/10.1049/joe.2018.0039

This study deals with the development of new control logic for more electric aircraft (MEA) electrical power systems (EPSs). A key aspect of the MEA concept is that traditional pneumatic and hydraulic loads are replaced by electrical equivalents. The...

Implementation of a Modelica library for simulation of electromechanical actuators for aircraft and helicopters (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Linden, F. V. D., Schlegel, C., Christmann, M., Regula, G., Hill, C. I., Giangrande, P., …Egaña, I. (2014). Implementation of a Modelica library for simulation of electromechanical actuators for aircraft and helicopters. In Proceedings of the 10th International Modelica Conference, March 10-12, 2014, Lund, Sweden. https://doi.org/10.3384/ECP14096757

The goal of the A2015 library presented in this paper is to develop a Modelica based, tool-independent standard for electromechanical actuators (EMA). This will contribute to the establishment of a “common language” throughout the development of EMAs...
