Advanced Techniques for Clearance of Flight Control Laws edited by Chris Fielding, Andras Varga, Samir Bennani, Michiel Selier.

In this book recent results of the GARTEUR (Group for Aeronautical Research and Technology in Europe) Action Group FM (AG11) are presented. The book focuses on analysis techniques for the flight clearance of highly augmented aircrafts, including contributions of 20 European aeronautical organisation...
