TITLE: ls_trim.c
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUNCTION: Trims the simulated aircraft by using certain
controls to null out a similar number of outputs.
This routine used modified Newton-Raphson method to find the vector
of control corrections, delta_U, to drive a similar-sized vector of
output errors, Y, to near-zero. Nearness to zero is to within a
tolerance specified by the Criteria vector. An optional Weight
vector can be used to improve the numerical properties of the
Jacobian matrix (called H_Partials).
Using a single-sided difference method, each control is
independently perturbed and the change in each output of
interest is calculated, forming a Jacobian matrix H (variable
name is H_Partials):
dY = H dU
The columns of H correspond to the control effect; the rows of
H correspond to the outputs affected.
We wish to find dU such that for U = U0 + dU,
Y = Y0 + dY = 0
or dY = -Y0
One solution is dU = inv(H)*(-Y0); however, inverting H
directly is not numerically sound, since it may be singular
(especially if one of the controls is on a limit, or the
problem is poorly posed). An alternative is to either weight
the elements of dU to make them more normalized; another is to
multiply both sides by the transpose of H and invert the
resulting [H' H]. This routine does both:
-Y0 = H dU
W (-Y0) = W H dU premultiply by W
H' W (-Y0) = H' W H dU premultiply by H'
dU = [inv(H' W H)][ H' W (-Y0)] Solve for dU
As a further refinement, dU is limited to a smallish magnitude
so that Y approaches 0 in small steps (to avoid an overshoot
if the problem is inherently non-linear).
Lastly, this routine can be easily fooled by "local minima",
or depressions in the solution space that don't lead to a Y =
0 solution. The only advice we can offer is to "go somewheres
else and try again"; often approaching a trim solution from a
different (non-trimmed) starting point will prove beneficial.

Revision 1.1 1999/04/05 21:32:45 curt
Initial revision
* Revision 1.9 1995/03/29 16:09:56 bjax
* Fixed bug in having more than three trim controls; removed unnecessary
* call to ls_trim_init in ls_trim_get_set. EBJ
*
* Revision 1.8 1995/03/16 12:28:40 bjax
* Fixed problem where ls_trim() returns non-zero if
* symbols are not loaded - implies vehicle trimmed when
* actually no trim attempt is made. This results in storing of non-
* trimmed initial conditions in sims without defined trim controls.
*
* Revision 1.7 1995/03/15 12:17:12 bjax
* Added flag marker line to ls_trim_put_set() routine output.
*
* Revision 1.6 1995/03/08 11:49:07 bjax
* Minor improvements to ls_trim_get_set; deleted weighting parameter
* for output definition; added comment lines to settings file output.
*
* Revision 1.5 1995/03/07 22:38:04 bjax
* Removed ls_generic.h; this version relies entirely on symbol table routines to
* set and get variable values. Added additional fields to Control record structure;
* created Output record with appropriate fields. Added ls_trim_put_set() and
* ls_trim_get_set() routines. Heavily modified initialization routine; most of this
* logic now resides in ls_trim_get_set(). Renamed all routines so that they being
* with "ls_trim_" to avoid conflicts.
* EBJ
*
* Revision 1.4 1995/03/07 13:04:16 bjax
* Configured to use ls_get_sym_val() and ls_set_sym_val().
*
* Revision 1.3 1995/03/03 01:59:53 bjax
* Moved definition of SYMBOL_NAME and SYMBOL_TYPE to ls_sym.h
* and removed from this module. EBJ
*
* Revision 1.2 1995/02/27 19:53:41 bjax
* Moved symbol routines to ls_sym.c to declutter this file. EBJ
*
* Revision 1.1 1995/02/27 18:14:10 bjax
* Initial revision
