  In this paper, we investigate a novel control architecture and algorithm for
incorporating preadaption functions. We propose a preadaptation mechanism that
can augment any adaptive control scheme and improve its resilience. Through
simulations of a flight control system we illustrate the effectiveness of the
preadaptation mechanism in improving the adaptation. We show that the
preadaptation mechanism we propose can reduce the peak of the response by as
much as $50\%$. The scenarios we present also show that the preadaptation
mechanism is effective across a wide range of scenarios suggesting that the
mechanism is reliable.
