Abstract

A comprehensive mass properties analyses process is essential in determining reliable payoffs
for reduced static stability (RSS) and load alleviation and mode suppression (LAMS). This process
is discussed as it applies to advance design studies relating to the application of active controls
to transport aircraft. Reference is made to the Douglas mass properties estimation system (MAPES)
which is a computer program for transport aircraft weight estimation, and is very adaptable to
active controls applications. Weight effects to structural components resulting from the application
of RSS and LAMS are discussed, as are systems implications. Payoffs are discussed in terms of vehicle
range, vehicle size, and increased payload.
