Generalized Feedback Control and Application to Vehicle Path Following Control
… und definiert als 'Generalized Feedback Control' (GFC). Im allgemeinen Sprachgebrauch wird 'Feedback Control' mit einem Regelungssignal in Verbindung gebracht, das proportional zu dem Fehler angesetzt wird, der zwischen einer gewünschten und der tatsächlichen Systemantwort auftritt. Ein …

Linear Parameter Varying Path Following Control of a Small Fixed Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
… to simulated flight test data. Multiple controllers were devised based on this model for path following, including a self-scheduled linear parameter-varying (LPV) controller with path curvature as a scheduling parameter. The robustness and performance of these controllers were tested in a …

Design and control of an origami-enabled soft crawling autonomous robot (OSCAR)
… sensing. These uncertainties prevent high-level control implementation, such as autonomous navigation, to be performed successfully. Therefore, soft robots require robust design methods, as well as path following and path planning algorithms, to mitigate these uncertainties and enable autonomy. …

SPACE-CONSTRAINED AUTONOMOUS REVERSING OF ARTICULATED VEHICLES
This dissertation presents several modern control methods for autonomous reversing of long combination vehicles (LCVs). These approaches not only significantly improve the performance of previous autonomous reversing systems, but also address a major gap in the reversing control literature for …

Cooperative Control of Miniature Air Vehicles
Cooperative control for miniature air vehicles (MAVs) is currently a highly researched topic. There are many application for which MAVs are well suited, including fire monitoring, surveillance and reconaissance, and search and rescue missions. All of these applications can be carried out more …

Methods for Control in Robotic Excavation
… soil properties. Unlike traditional force control or trajectory control, the method uses the power transmitted from the excavator to the soil as a signal for adaptive excavation. Using an extremum-seeking algorithm, an optimal excavation depth that maximizes the output power of the machine …

On Data-Driven Modeling, Robust Control, and Analysis for Complex Dynamical Systems
This dissertation advances tools for robust control and analysis of complex nonlinear dynamical systems. Specifically, it leverages standard synthesis and robustness analysis techniques developed for linear systems and provides additional results to design robust controllers for nonlinear systems …
