Tischler (aeroflightdynamics, Ames Research Center) and Remple (technical writing, U. of California-Santa Cruz) present the frequency-response method for identifying aircraft systems that was developed over the course of 25 years by the US Army and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The book is suitable for a graduate or advanced undergraduate course in system identification. Among the topics are collecting time-history data, data consistency and reconstruction, bare-airframe identification from data with feedback regulation active, transfer-function modeling, the time-domain verification of identification models, and extended models of large flexible transport aircraft.
