Abstract

Flight simulation plays a crucial role in aircraft conceptual design, guidance and control system development, and pilot training. To address the limitations in the architectural design of the dynamics core in traditional flight simulation systems, this study proposes a novel architecture: Boundary-Motion-Force-Coordinate-Constant (BMFCC), based on the characteristics of flight dynamics problems and object-oriented software development techniques. The BMFCC architecture decomposes the dynamics core of flight simulation systems into three layers: the boundary layer, the motion equation layer, and the external force layer, along with two packages: the coordinate transformation package and the constant package. Using a flight simulation system based on the BMFCC architecture, simulations of carrier-based aircraft landing and seaplane takeoff and landing processes were successfully conducted. Thanks to the design of this architecture, different flight simulation tasks can be achieved by simply modifying the code in the external force layer to simulate various aircraft. Analysis of the simulation results shows that the time-domain curves of aircraft position and attitude align with empirical observations, validating the correctness of the flight simulation system based on the BMFCC architecture.
