A data-driven approach to online flight capability estimation
… but also from awareness of its performance capability. Because this degrades over time due to fatigue and acute damage, onboard logic often uses conservative estimates of performance from the initial vehicle design to plan feasible mission trajectories. We develop an approach for dynamically …

The reproductive seasonality and flight capability of Sitona discoideus Gyllenhal (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) and its pattern of larval establishment in Canterbury lucerne
… of the reproductive seasonality and flight potential of Silona discoideus Gyllenhal, samples were taken at regular intervals from lucerne (Medicago saliva L.) stands throughout the 1982-83 and 1983-84 seasons. Changes in the weevil's reproductive condition and flight muscle morphology …

Aggressive landing maneuvers for unmanned aerial vehicles
… as a way to considerably enhance the operational capability of these vehicles. The features of the research include a novel approach to trajectory tracking, whereby the primary system outputs to be tracked are smoothly scheduled according to the state of the vehicle relative to its landing area. …

Advanced classification methods for UAV imagery
… to their small size and rapidly deployable flight capability, notwithstanding their ease of use and affordability. The very high level of details of the data acquired via UAVs, however, in order to be properly availed, requires further treatment through suitable image processing and analysis …

Vision-Assisted Control of a Hovering Air Vehicle in an Indoor Setting
… the thrust from four motors to provide hover flight capability. The uncoupled nature of the longitudinal and lateral axes and its ability to support large payloads with respect to its size make it an attractive vehicle for autonomous vehicle research. In this thesis, the quadrotor is modeled …

The ecology of chickens: an examination of the introduction of the domestic chicken across Europe after the Bronze Age.
… the chicken are debated. As a bird with limited flight capability, the chicken has been transported worldwide by humans. Once the chicken arrived in Europe, very little attention has been given to the human-chicken interactions which governed its success, and enabled it to become permanently …
