Evaluation of innovative concepts for semi-active and active rotorcraft control

Lead-lag dampers are present in most rotor systems to provide the desired level of damping for all flight conditions. These dampers are critical components of the rotor system, and the performance of semi-active Coulomb-friction-based lead-lag dampers is examined for the UH-60 aircraft. The concept...
