A new manipulate mechanism with automatic position reset function for helicopter driving simulator is proposed and developed. The motion platform of the driving simulator and the synchronous motion analysis are designed. The synchronous simulation research is carried out. By using the simulation method, the availability of the mechanism and the feasibility of synchronous motion are verified. It provides a new design scheme and develops synchronous motion analysis method for the manipulate mechanism of the helicopter driving simulator. Firstly, the mechanisms and models of the manipulate stick and the driving simulator are established. The mathematical modeling and kinematic derivation are carried out respectively. Secondly, the dynamic simulation of the manipulate mechanism is carried out and the driving simulator model is built by using MATLAB/Simulink. In order to control the attitude adjustment of the helicopter driving simulator, the mapping relationship between the manipulate mechanism and the 6-DOFs platform is established. And the effect of synchronous motion simulation is achieved. The simulation results show that the manipulate mechanism can perform the load simulation of the joystick by spring compression and is feasible to control the driving simulator. Comparing with formerly electric load simulation, this research provides us a new way to achieve manipulate stick load simulation by mechanism design for helicopter driving simulator. The simulation result curves verify the proposed research method is reasonable and practice for helicopter driving simulation.

The manipulate load system of a helicopter driving simulator is a complex mechatronic system. To simulate the load system of the joystick more effectively, this study provides a new manipulate mechanism with automatic position reset function that integrates a spring system within the joystick. The load simulation of this manipulate mechanism can be achieved by designing the nonlinear coefficient of the spring in a reasonable manner, thereby eliminating the need for complex control of motor simulation and system time delay. This greatly simplifies the complexity of the system and effectively meets the requirements of real-time and accuracy. Initially, the new manipulate mechanism is described in detail through kinematic analysis. Then, dynamic simulation is conducted in ADAMS software to simulate the motion of the operation mechanism. Considering the active–passive relationships between the manipulate mechanism and the driving simulator, a mapping is established to achieve synchronized motion. The synchronized motion is subsequently evaluated and verified in MATLAB/Simulink. The results reveal that this new manipulate mechanism has high reliability and can effectively achieve synchronized motion with the driving simulator. The new manipulate mechanism will be useful in advancing research into the design of manipulate mechanism processes.

Spatial disorientation and visual channel saturation are defined as critical situations encountered by military pilots. Such subjects are interesting research areas likely to create innovative systems able to surmount obstacles of this kind. The integration of new stimulation techniques (sensory substitute, adjunct for visual and audio feedback) may be considered to make the visual channel better. This contribution may help in integrating tactile stimulation to improve or substitute the visual channel. It may also help to better interpret the spatial disorientation awareness signals and the vestibulo-ocular response limitations. The innovation of the proposed approach translates in: (i) the development of the PI-Inverse dynamics controller to provide a time delay reduction of the low cost tactile actuator, and thus, high-performance tactile system; (ii) an approach based on fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is being used in order to translate the turn rate angle, the flight path climb angle and the warning messages into tactile signal features instead of a conventional approach based on direct coding of the pitch and bank angles; and (iii) the consideration of the flight envelope. The fuzzy set translation of flight parameters into tactile signals is also a pragmatic and useful way to design the system.
