Control Engineering Services
for Defence Industry

CONSULTANCY TRAINING EXAMPLES OF OUR WORK

 

Consultancy

ISC has been engaged on many defence related projects, both for surface ships and submarine, as well as working in control for avionics systems and land vehicles. Our latest developments are looking at control for Unmanned Vehicles.

Download Capability Sheet

We are usually engaged to provide technical support for early stage feasibility studies for large defence companies like BAE Systems, Rolls-Royce or QinetiQ. However, we do from time-to-time undertake troubleshooting problems for in-service or near-service control systems that are proving problematic.

We have skilled permanent UK National staff to undertake this work.

Training

We provide standard, industry specific and bespoke courses on a range of fundamental and advanced control engineering topics.

Industry-Specific Training

We can adapt individual courses to suit your company's industry/business. (Examples)

EXAMPLES OF OUR WORK

Control Loop Investigation and Recommendations for HMS Astute

ISC were engaged to investigate a specific control loop on HMS Astute, reviewing current performance and making recommendations for improvements. A simple, but sufficient math model was built to demonstrate the proposed changes ahead of commissioning.

Nonlinear Compensation for Sensors

A bespoke algorithm was developed and analysed for the online compensation of sensor nonlinearities. As well as accuracy and computational burden, data diversity issues were paramount in this safety critical application.

Combat Aircraft CD-ROM Control

Improved head positioning control needed to counteract disturbances due to high accelerations. A Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT) approach was proposed.
