The project "Active load Reduction for enabling a 1-G wing using fOrward-looking and distributed sensors" (ARGO) explores active gust load reduction concepts for future commercial aircraft. As gust loads are currently an important factor for structural dimensioning, active gust load reduction can significantly contribute to reducing fuel consumption due to a lighter designed structure.
In this project, the Institute of Flight Guidance takes over tasks in flight dynamic modeling, control concept development and fault tolerant controller design.
