The development and testing of flight simulator motion-base algorithms suited to commercial jet transports is reported. Full six degrees-of-freedom motion of a synergistic motion base is studied. Three forms for these algorithms are considered: (1) classical linear washout; (2) optimal control; and (3) coordinated adaptive washout. It is felt that the latter two techniques may provide some advantages over the classical, which is currently employed in most commercial flight simulators. The aims of this project are to, develop the necessary equations, implement the necessary software in real-time, and evaluate the performance of the software with the help of test pilots in a complete flight simulation. The development of the equations and the software used for testing them is described. The evaluation of the performance of the algorithms is based on predicted pilot motion sensations and motion-based travel. The motion sensations are formulated from linear models of the human vestibular system. The test runs of the algorithms demonstrate their operation and effectiveness. Several modifications to existing formulations are suggested.
