Welcome to the SimSAC project



The SimSAC project was concluded in 2010 and the information on this web site not maintained. For recent information on the results and follow-on of the SimSAC project please visit the CEASIOM web site



The results of the SimSAC project were published by Elsevier in November 2011 in a Special issue of Progress in Aerospace Sciences.



Simulating Aircraft Stability And Control Characteristics for Use in Conceptual Design

A Specific Targeted Research Project
In the EU Aeronatuics Program of FP6
Contract N° FP6-030838
Duration: 36 months
Project Coordinator:
Prof. Arthur Rizzi,
KTH - The Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm rizzi at kth.se

 

Mission Statement

The mission of the SimSAC project is to enhance the conceptual design and early preliminary design processes by developing an integrated digital design and decision making environment where for any given aircraft configuration the aerodynamic information for stability and control assessment can be computed at some user nominated fidelity in the conceptual design phase (see figure).
