TLDR
A comprehensive account of modern system identification techniques is provided in this paper, where several challenging examples bring out the fact that these techniques have reached a high level of maturity, making them a sophisticated and powerful tool not only for research purposes, but also to support the needs of the aircraft industry.
Abstract
Synopsis: From the nostalgic remembrance of the first dynamic flight test this Survey Paper traces several milestones in the history of flight vehicle system identification. A comprehensive account of modern system identification techniques is provided. Several challenging examples bring out the fact that these techniques have reached a high level of maturity, making them a sophisticated and powerful tool not only for research purposes, but also to support the needs of the aircraft industry. This survey paper includes 183 references and provides a consolidated list of publications on the subject.

State-Space Representation of Aerodynamic Characteristics of an Aircraft at High Angles of Attack

TL;DR: In this article, the state-space representation of aerodynamic forces and moments for unsteady aircraft motion is proposed, considering separated flow about an airfoil and flow with vortex breakdown about a slender delta wing gives the base for mathematical modeling using internal variables describing the flow state.

Neural networks and physical systems with emergent collective computational abilities

TL;DR: A model of a system having a large number of simple equivalent components, based on aspects of neurobiology but readily adapted to integrated circuits, produces a content-addressable memory which correctly yields an entire memory from any subpart of sufficient size.
