Deliverables Documents, reports (19) 12 month Progress Report The project coordinator submits an annual progress report to the European Commission, when it does not coincide with the EC mandatory periodic reporting, indicating the status of the project. The structure of this progress report will be the same as that of the periodic report. Task 5.1 Manufacturing design for advanced wing Based on the detailed design of the advanced wing from T26 all manufacturing related tooling design activities are performed This includes design of molds support structures attachment structures as well as data model generation for machining and printing processes Sensor concept advanced wing finalized Based on the flight test programme and the formulated means of compliance a detailed sensor concept for the wings as well as for the overall demonstrator are established This includes also the requirements and interface definitions on borad of the demonstrator as well as in the ground control station and the data link equipment Reference Model Definition Based on the expertise of partners a set of models with increasing fidelity will be set up, which provides a foundation for tools, interfaces and parameterization of models. The Flexible Aircraft Benchmark defined within D1.5 will also serve as a basis of the Scale-up (Task 4.1) where different candidate baseline configurations will be defined, and the Design Toolchain from Task 2.6 will be applied to these candidate configurations via the standardized interfaces. Exploitation and Dissemination Plan Exploitation goals of the consortium and the planning of the individual partners will be compiled in the Exploitation and Dissemination Plan. A preliminary version of the Exploitation and Dissemination Plan will be generated mid-project. The general objectives of the dissemination activities are: • to ensure maximum awareness and visibility of the achievements and results of the project particularly in influential aerospace bodies, • to make known new methodologies and standards that could be obtained as a part of the project results and to encourage their use to carry on this line of investigation, • to promote the use of the new technology developed and tested in the project, across companies and institutions who have an interest in flexible aircraft design. Task 5.3 Report on flight control system layout Report describing the flight control architecture and structure. This control structure will address the complete integrated avionic process including aircraft shape, sensors and actuator locations and detailed control design. The aim of the report is more to detail the structure and tuning variables rather than the methodology employed to adjust them. This latter will serve as baseline for developments of WP2 activities Scale-up design objectives Captures and describes the design objectives for the scaleup study "Flight Test Programme – Flight Test Phase #1" A detailed flight test programme is established defining the test objectives, means of compliance, requirements on specific test procedures to be followed. The Flight test programme also specifies abnormal behaviour measures and quality gates. Wing and demonstrator actuation and sensing conceptual design requirements The deliverable will capture the requirements related to the attainement of proposed project goals. To be able to demonstrate wing shape control the shape of the wing has to be estimated and proper actuators with the adequate flight control surfaces have to be placed on the aircraft. The rationale behind the conceptual design requirements will be documented in D1.1. Data management plan The DMP will provide guidelines for the project partners with regard to all the datasets that will be generated within the project. The DMP will address the naming conventions, description of datasets, standards and metadata, and data sharing properties on a dataset by dataset basis. The DMP will be updated reflecting the current status of view on the data that will be produced, evolving during the lifespan of the project. Task 5.1 24 month Progress Report The project coordinator submits an annual progress report to the European Commission when it does not coincide with the EC mandatory periodic reporting indicating the status of the project The structure of this progress report will be the same as that of the periodic reportTask 51 Analytical redundancy methods In order to achieve the project goals with a reliable avionics architecture the already installed sensor and actuator settings will be used in a novel to define input and output blending, as well as novel sensor and actuator fusion to provide fault tolerance. In addition, the challenging and open problem of optimal sensor/actuator selections is investigated in relation to the novel movables design. The document will describe the proposed FDIR and sensor-actuator selection methods and their application to the demonstrator aircraft configuration Demonstrator ground and flight test requirements definition To be able to demonstrate the proposed innovative ac design cycle the flight test will have to provide sufficiently rich information for both iterative refinement of tools and methods and proof about their performance According to the project objectives the ground and flight test requirements will be documented in D13 to be aligned with the remaining workpackages "Flight Test Programme - Flight Test Phase #2" A detailed flight test programme is established defining the test objectives means of compliance requirements on specific test procedures to be followed The Flight test programme also specifies abnormal behaviour measures and quality gates Requirements capture for a/c MDO design The requirements for Integrated, Collaborative Design Tool Chain are developed first within D1.2, since that lays the foundation of the experimental and analytical research within the project. The aircraft sizing cycle has to fulfil various constraints, while optimizing fuel consumption and passenger comfort, to name a few. So their tradeoff and the required fidelity in the preliminary design stage are described in the deliverable, including the proposed way to incorporate novel steps within the MDO cycle - including control system parameters. Data Analytics for Model Validation The data from flight tests will serve as a baseline to validate structural dynamics aerodynamics controls and avionics instrumentation models Analysis tools with standard validation routines will be provided in Nastran and Matlab environment for structural dynamics and controls respectively These tools along with Python based data science software will be used within the project and the underlying theory along with interfaces of these tools will be documented in D16 Information and interfaces definition for Collaborative Work Process The interdisciplinary teams within the project will share models data and tools among them D14 formalizes these steps within the iteration loops and establishes a document to define their interdependency and their standard interfaces CAD NASTRAN Dymola MatlabSimulink embedded C code "Flight Test Report - Flight Test Phase #1" Based on the Flight Test programme for the specific flight test campaign the test conditions eg wheather aircraft configuration CoG weight will be documented as well as occurances or abnomalies during the conducted test flight Flight test data will decribed with respect to formats correction factors etc Report on tool adaptation for collaborative design The report will consider at first the construction of parametrized structural model using CAD and FEM methods. Then, as a second step, the generation of reduced and parametric dynamical models, tailored to the analysis and the control design will be done. The purpose is to define an approach to bridge the gap between accurate and complex to accurate and simple models.
