Inertial Hysteresis Couplings
This thesis presents the Inertial Hysteresis Coupling (IHC), a new family of variable-slip mechanical couplings/clutches aimed at achieving order-of-magnitude (∼10x) improvements in torque density (torque capacity / coupling diameter) over existing magnetic and fluid options. IHCs leverage combined …

Inertial oscillations in the Mediterranean
… terms of the dominant and persistent presence of inertial oscillations, circularly polarized currents having periods of a half pendulum day, the data are among the most striking ever collected. Two contemporary theories have been adapted for interpretation of this data. On the basis of a ray or …

Optimal Image-Aided Inertial Navigation
… cameras and the fusion of imaging and inertial sensors in poor GNSS environments. The three major contributions of this dissertation are The development of a structureless camera auto-calibration and system calibration algorithm for a GNSS, IMU and stereo camera system. The …

Inertial manifolds in biological systems
… In Nonlinear Dynamics, such functions are called Inertial Manifolds. They are defined as manifolds that are invariant under the flow of the dynamical system, and attract all trajectories exponentially. The first example gives rise to a generalisation of a theorem which, in the literature, is …

MEMS IMU inertial measurement unit one-way-travel-time inertial measurement unit autonomous underwater vehicles
… XY position error. Additionally, advances in inertial sensor technology have drastically lowered the size, power consumption, and cost of these sensors. Nonetheless, these sensors are still noisy and accrue error over time. This thesis builds on the research and recent developments in single …

A personal inertial-navigation system based on multiple distributed, nine-degrees-of-freedom, inertial measurement units
The use of inertial-measurement units (IMUs) for personal navigation is investigated in this thesis. IMUs lack a position-finding algorithm that optimally blends sensor data to achieve high accuracy in a GPS-denied environment. In this research, software and a methodology for tracking position …

Non-inertial Undulatory Locomotion Across Scales
… rely on waves of undulation for locomotion. In inertial regimes, organisms can leverage the forces generated by their body and the surrounding medium's inertia to enhance their locomotion (e.g., coast or glide). On the other hand, in non-inertial regimes self-propulsion is dominated by damping …

Active Perception for Inertial-Aided Systems
Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) are proprioceptive sensors that measure angular velocities and linear accelerations which are integrated to estimate the relative pose of vehicles in motion. Estimation algorithms used with IMUs need to account for sensor noises which corrupt the measurements, and …
