NOTE:  Most of the commands discussed in this documentation are 
       currently implemented in the UIUC aerodynamics model.  Those 
       denoted by '|' are proposed and will likely be added in the 
       future but are not currently implemented.  Some commands are 
       in use but not producing the desired results.  These are 
       clearly noted, so please do not attempt to use them at this 
       time.

II. General Input Line Format:

Examples input lines include

Cm Cmo           0.194  # []          Bray pg 33
Cm Cm_a         -2.12   # [/rad]      Bray pg 33
CL CLfa CLfa.dat 0 1    # []          Bray pg 50, Table 4.7

These follow the more general input line form

keyword  variableName  <value -or- file> | ->
    <value -or- file>  # [units]  <data source>

Each term of the input line will be discussed in turn.

(1) KEYWORDS
============

There currently exist the following variable keyword types:

init            Initial values for equation of motion
geometry        Aircraft-specific geometric quantities
controlSurface  Control surface deflections and properties
|controlsMixer  Control surface mixer options
mass            Aircraft-specific mass properties
engine          Propulsion data
CD              Aerodynamic x-force quantities (longitudinal)
CL              Aerodynamic z-force quantities (longitudinal)
Cm              Aerodynamic m-moment quantities (longitudinal)
CY              Aerodynamic y-force quantities (lateral)
Cl              Aerodynamic l-moment quantities (lateral)
Cn              Aerodynamic n-moment quantities (lateral)
gear            Landing gear model quantities
ice             Icing model parameters
record          Record desired quantites to file
misc            Miscellaneous inputs
fog		Fog field quantities

As each line of the input file is read, the code recognizes the
keyword, enters the appropriate switch statement in the code, and
proceeds to read the next term in the input line.

(2) VARIABLE NAMES
==================

The variable name indicates the form of the variable itself.  This
form may be a constant, a stability derivative (a specific form of a
constant), or a variable-dimensional lookup table.  More variable
types can be easily prescribed by defining a new convention.  The
variable name may also indicate that the quantity is to be calculated
from a hard-coded equation or set of equations provided at an
appropriate location within the code.

If the parameter name denotes a constant, a numerical value will 
follow the variable name.  If a lookup table, the name of the table 
containing the data will follow.

More than one value or file name can be specified if the code is 
intended to read in multiple pieces of data when implementing the 
particular switch in question (see also OPTIONAL data, section (3)).

The conventions used for naming the variables are provided below.
Several of these variable names are not currently used.

1) variable class
_                   denotes stability derivative
f                   "function of" (indicates data table)

(3) | [OPTIONAL DATA]
=====================

An input line may also be used to provide optional data that
will be used if provided but is not necessary for the code to 
operate.  As with the variable data described in section (2), multiple 
values or data files may be provided if the code is written to use 
them.

(4) # [COMMENTS]
================

Appended comments should be provided with each input line to indicate 
units on the variable in question and to indicate the source the data 
was drawn from.

IV. Input Line Definitions:

Of all the possible permutations of variable names described above in
section II, only some are curently implemented in the code.  These are
described below.  Comments, denoted by '#,' are used to define the
lines and to indicate examples of the data if additional clarity is
needed for unique situations.  Again, those lines beginning with '|'
are not currently implemented in the code, but indicate planned
conventions in later versions.

=============================CONVERSION CODES================================

To calculate the aero forces, angles (eg, alfa, beta, elevator deflection, etc)
must be in radians.  To convert input data in degree to radian, use a
conversion code of 1.  To use no conversion, use a conversion code of 0.

------------------------------------------------
convert1/2/3  Action
------------------------------------------------
  0           no conversion (multiply by 1)
  1           convert degrees to radians

================================GEAR POSITION================================

There are 16 gear positions. Currently only the first three positions are
rolling wheels.  Position 1 is reserved for the nose wheel, position 2 is 
reserved for the right wheel, and position 3 is reserved for the left wheel.
The rest of the positions can be left out or used to define locations on the
plane such as the wing tips or tail.  This way the wing tips or tail will not
go "through" the ground but "bounce off" the ground.

fog fog_point    <time> <intensity> 

Note: Between each fog_point there is a linear interpolation

============================FOG EXAMPLE===============================

fog fog_segments 4
fog fog_point 30 500
fog fog_point 35 200
fog fog_point 40 -100
fog fog_point 50 0

The first line says that there will be 4 fog_point statements following.
From time 0 to 30 seconds, the fog will increase linearly to 500.  From 
30 to 35 seconds, the fog will decrease linearly to 200.  From 35 to 40
seconds the fog will decrease to -100.  From 40 to 50 the fog will
increase to 0.

V. Mandatory Input:

The following data is required for the simulator to function;
otherwise either the UIUC Aero Model or LaRCsim parts of the code will
probably crash.
