How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

One of the most dangerous parts of the flight is the landing phase, as most accidents occur at this stage. In order to reduce the effect of the low-level wind shear on the longitudinal motion of the aircraft in the glide path landing mode (task) a robust H- control is proposed. Dynamic models of the plane and wind shear are built. H2 and H∞ synthesis methods are investigated for the task of aircraft flight control in a vertical plane during landing under conditions of undefined disturbances. Both control methods allow to reduce height deviation significantly. However, suboptimal control H∞ provides better quality of transition processes both in height and speed than optimal control H2. The results of simulation of the synthesized system confirm the effectiveness of H∞ - control for increasing robust stability to uncertainties caused by wind disturbances.
