Adaptive Augmentation of Non-Minimum Phase Flexible Aerospace Systems
<p>This work demonstrates the efficacy of direct adaptive augmentation on a robotic flexible system as an analogue of a large flexible aerospace structure such as a launch vehicle or aircraft. To that end, a robot was constructed as a control system testbed. This robot, named “Penny,” contains the …

Modeling and adaptive control of indoor unmanned aerial vehicles
… and planning. This thesis investigates modeling, adaptive control and trajectory optimization methods as applied to indoor autonomous flight vehicles in both a theoretical and experimental context. Three types of small-scale UAVs, including a custom-built three-wing tailsitter, are combined with a …

Aircraft loss-of-control prevention via backup flight control law design and flight envelope protection
… tackle the aircraft loss-of-control problem by adaptive backup flight control law design and flight envelope protection for aircraft with physical damage. In the first part of the study, a backup lateral-directional flight control law for mid-sized transport aircraft with vertical-tail damage is …
