In this paper a linear parameter-varying (LPV) controller design approach is applied
to the longitudinal dynamics of a large blended wing body aircraft. The method is based on
parameter-dependent Lyapunov functions utilizing the information given by bounds for the
maximum parameter rate of variation. The entire parameter space is approximated by a set
of linearized models in trimmed operating points which leads to a finite-dimensional convex
optimization problem. Typical design goals for flexible aircraft control such as handling qualities,
loads and vibration reduction were considered with the Mach number as scheduling parameter.
The obtained LPV controller is extensively tested, and the obtained results demonstrate the
high potential of the methodology for flexible aircraft control.
