CURRENT
AIR4253B
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides design information of various contemporary aircraft fly-by-wire (FBW) flight control actuation systems that may be useful in the design of future systems for similar applications. It is primarily applicable to manned aircraft. It presents the basic characteristics, hardware descriptions, redundancy concepts, functional schematics, and discussions of the servo controls, failure monitoring, and fault tolerance. All existing FBW actuation systems are not described herein; however, those most representing the latest designs are included. While this AIR is intended as a reference source of information for aircraft actuation system designs, the exclusion or omission of any other appropriate actuation system or subsystem should not limit consideration of their use on future aircraft.

Aerospace Fly-by-Light Actuation Systems

AIR4982A
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) has been prepared to provide information regarding options for optical control of fluid power actuation devices. It is not intended to establish standards for optical fluid power control, but rather is intended to provide a baseline or foundation from which standards can be developed. It presents and discusses approaches for command and communication with the actuation device via electro-optic means. The development of standards will require industry wide participation and cooperation to ensure interface commonality, reliability, and early reduction to practice. To facilitate such participation, this document provides potential users of the technology a balanced consensus on its present state of development, the prospects for demonstration of production readiness, and a discussion of problem areas within this technology.

Mechanical Control Design Guide

HISTORICAL
ARP5770
This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) provides guidelines for the configuration and design of mechanical control signal transmission systems and subsystems. It is focused on the recommended practices for designing cable and pulley, pushrod and bellcrank and push-pull flexible cable control systems. These systems are typically used in some combination to transmit pilot commands into primary, secondary and utility control system commands (mechanical or electrical) or aircraft surface commands. On mechanically controlled aircraft, most pilot control commands are initiated through cockpit mounted wheels, sticks, levers, pedals or cranks that are coupled by pushrods or links to cable systems. The cable systems are routed throughout the aircraft and terminated in close proximity to the commanded surface or function where cranks and pushrods are again used to control the commanded function.

POWER SOURCES FOR FLUIDIC CONTROLS

1991-11-01
HISTORICAL
AIR1245
This AIR concerns itself with the end use of Fluidic (or Flueric) control hardware on aerospace vehicle applications. The fluidic control hardware application is viewed as a system comprised of the following subsystems: Power Source Power Conditioner Fluidic/Flueric Control(s) This AIR identifies potential power sources and relates the design of the fluidic/flueric controls to the nature of both the power source and, as required, the power conditioner. In the unlikely event that the power source yields a fluid which is always at the desired pressure level, temperature range and flow rate capacity and, further, is free of particulate or liquid contaminate, pressure pulsation, etc., no power conditioner is required. Experience has shown that the power conditioner is usually necessary to assure operability and reliability of the total control system.
