Modern aerospace craft depend on fly-by-wire technology to control flight. Fly-by-wire technology combines flight computers with control sensors and actuators in a complex Mechatronic system. Design teams must analyze the flight control system as a whole to verify interactions between control surfaces, and understand how variations in design and environmental parameters affect performance and reliability. System complexity requires Robust Design methodologies coupled with systems simulation to verify correct and reliable operation.
Synopsys’ Saber design environment combines advanced, comprehensive analyses with the industry’s leading model library to meet the challenges of aerospace flight control design. From architecture level to physics based modeling of real world devices, and simple operating point to complex statistical analyses, design teams can analyze flight control systems to ensure nominal function and confirm robust operation across a variety of operating conditions.
