Investigation on new low cost electronically controlled fuel metering systems for small gas turbine engines
… gas turbine engines, particularly applicable in remotely piloted vehicles. The first one incorporates a diaphragm operated flat-seat bypass valve to maintain a constant differential pressure across the metering valve, which is actuated by a digital linear actuator. In the second one, both the …

Design and Construction of a 1/3-Scale, 1986 Cessna 172P Flight-Test Aircraft
… have performed scaled flight-testing of Remotely Piloted Vehicles (RPV's) and there is much speculation as to the results of these tests, but non-proprietary information about low-cost, scaled flight-testing is rare. The focus of the project at hand, therefore, is to compare the in-flight …

UAS as an Inventory Tool: A Photogrammetric Approach to Volume Estimation
… (UAS), also referred to as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) or remotely piloted vehicles (RPV), are associated with unmanned aircraft either controlled by a pilot on the ground or pre-programmed with specific flight paths. Small UASs have seen a massive increase in public interest in recent …

Scalable Autonomous Operations of Unmanned Assets
… currently used are mainly, strictly speaking, Remotely Piloted Vehicles (RPA) since most works related with the flight control, sensor data analysis, and decision makings are done by human operators. To increase the degree of autonomy, many researches are focused on developing Unmanned …

Modelling and control of unmanned ground vehicles
The thesis focuses on issues of vehicle modelling incorporating wheel-terrain interaction and low-level control design taking into account uncertainties and input time delay. Addressing these issues is of significant importance in achieving persistent autonomy for outdoor UGVs, especially when …
