Wing damage has adverse effects on aircraft, and may even lead to loss of control of the aircraft. This paper proposes a novel variable damping modification adaptive control approach to stabilize and control an aircraft with wing damage. The proposed control approach is applied by using nonlinear dynamic inversion as a baseline augmented with a variable damping modification adaptive control on an aircraft model in presence of wing damage. The variable damping modification adaptive control is designed to accommodate uncertainty due to wing damage, and to achieve desired error-tracking performance. The variable damping modification adaptive law derived from the common Lyapunov stability theory ensures that the tracking error is uniformly ultimately bounded. The properties of the proposed variable damping modification adaptive controller are investigated against an e -modification adaptive control strategy. The results clearly show that the proposed adaptive controller can substantially improve error-tracking performance compared with the e -modification adaptive controller.
