Aircraft wing rock dynamics and control
The dynamics of wing rock on rigid aircraft having single, two, and three rotational degrees-of-freedom are analyzed. For the purpose of the analysis, nonlinear mathematical models of the aircraft are developed. The aerodynamic expressions contained in the models can be built by fitting the …

Dynamics and Control of Morphing Aircraft
… shape change for the purpose of optimized flight and maneuvering control authority. Dynamical equations are derived for a morphing aircraft based on two primary representations; a general non-rigid model and a multi-rigid-body. A simplified model is then proposed by considering the altering …

Dynamics and control of manipulating robots
Dynamics and Control of manipulating robots currently is a major field of research in robotics. Various methods of efficiently formulating the non-linear dynamics have been proposed with an emphasis on reducing the computations necessary to solve the dynamics. Several control concepts and …

Dynamics and Control of Flexible Aircraft
… flight of flexible aircraft, namely, analytical dynamics, structural dynamics, aerodynamics and controls. The unified formulation is based on fundamental principles and incorporates in a natural manner both rigid body motions of the aircraft as a whole and elastic deformations of the flexible …

An investigation of turbogenerator dynamics and control
This thesis provides an investigation of the dynamics and control of turbogenerators from a multivariable control viewpoint. The multivariate control framework chosen -Individual Channel Analysis and Design- is particularly appropriate since it encapsulates the dynamical characteristics of the …

Dynamics and control of electromagnetic satellite formations
… electromagnetic coils to provide forces and torques between different satellites in a formation which enables the control of all the relative degrees of freedom. With EMFF, the life-span of the mission becomes independent of the fuel available on board. Also the contamination of optics or …

Dynamics and Control for Vibration Isolation Design
… system is that it cannot be used when the base and/or equipment are flexible. System flexibility has been considered in previous literature but the flexibility has always been approximated which leads to truncation errors. The analysis used in this work is more sophisticated in that it can model …

New Models for Crowd Dynamics and Control
… been an increasing interest in modeling crowd and evacuation dynamics. Pedestrian models are based on macroscopic or microscopic behavior. In this work, we are interested in developing models that can be used for evacuation control strategies. Hence, we use macroscopic modeling approach, where …

Dynamics and Control of Higher-order Nonholonomic Systems
<p>A theoretical framework is established for the control of higher-order nonholonomic systems, defined as systems that satisfy higher-order nonintegrable constraints. A model for such systems is developed in terms of differential-algebraic equations defined on a higher-order tangent bundle. A …

Mechatronics examples for teaching modeling, dynamics, and control
… demo for an introductory course on modeling, dynamics, and control. We solve this classic nonlinear controls problem with feedback linearization; the main advantage with this technique is operating point independency. However, it is highly sensitive to modeling errors and unpredicted plant …

Dynamics and control of a planar truss actuator
Recent demands in large space structure technology have suggested the use of active control actuators integral to a structures' construction. The concept of a 3-D (triangular cross-sectioned) active truss is presented. The linear equations of motion for one plane of the truss are derived. A model …
