Algebraic Analysis of Stability and Bifurcation for Nonlinear Flight Dynamics
Résumé
This note presents an application of algebraic methods to derive exact conditions for certain nonlinear flight dynamical systems to exhibit stability and bifurcation. The roll-coupling flight model is taken as an example to show the feasibility of algebraic analysis. Some of the previous stability and bifurcation results obtained using numerical analysis for this model are confirmed.
