Abstract:

A practical approach is proposed for analysis and evaluation of the ride quality of civil aircraft fight in atmospheric turbulence. From the probability density of atmospheric turbulence wind, the probabilistic index of ride quality is developed based on the relation between the standard C of ride quality and aircraft response to atmospheric turbulence. Furthermore, the calculation methodology of the probabilistic index is studied by calculating the aircraft power response to the turbulence.
