Creating a Unified Graphical Wind Turbulence Model from Multiple Specifications

This paper documents the research for and development of the unified wind turbulence model block for a Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) software package that allows for a graphical hierarchical block diagram representation of entire vehicles including environment and control models. Recognized standards were used as a basis for the COTS wind turbulence block's operational requirements. Standards used were MIL-F-8785C and MIL-HDBK-1797, which provide guidelines for modeling wind turbulence. Additionally multiple papers on wind turbulence were referenced.
