Nonlinear identification of aircraft gas-turbine dynamics

Abstract Identification results for the shaft-speed dynamics of an aircraft gas turbine, under normal operation, are presented. As it has been found that the dynamics vary with the operating point, nonlinear models are employed. Two different approaches are considered: NARX models, and neural network models, namely multilayer perceptrons, radial basis function networks and B-spline networks. A special attention is given to genetic programming, in a multiobjective fashion, to determine the structure of NARMAX and B-spline models.
