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...
