title = "Evaluation of an adaptive method for launch vehicle flight control",
abstract = "Future reusable launch vehicles must be designed to fly a wide spectrum of missions and survive numerous types of failures. The X-33 Reusable Launch Vehicle Technology Demonstrator is used as a simulation platform for testing a neural networkbased model-reference adaptive controller and comparing it to a gain scheduled controller through a series of test cases including engine failures, control failures and mismodeling and dispersion cases. The adaptive controller is found to successfully handle a wide variety of failure modes and modeling errors, typically scoring better in both nominal and failure cases, as well as in dispersion tests.",
