Compared to conventional aircraft, the Blended-wing-body (BWB) aircraft have better stealth, aerodynamic and structural performances. However, insufficient stability, longitudinal and lateral/directional coupling, etc. make the dynamic stability of BWB aircraft significantly different. This paper concentrate on the equation of motion derivation and dynamic stability analysis of a BWB aircraft.
