Translational and Rotational Control of an Asteroid Orbiting Satellite
… of this thesis is to analyze an effective control scheme for an asteroid orbiting satellite. The thesis first summarizes the progress made in the dynamics formulation of such satellites and then provides a theoretical framework for the control system design. The control objective is to …

Electronic properties and device applications of rotationally controlled van der Waals heterostructures
… van der Waals heterostructures considering the rotational control between different 2D layers. A hemispherical handle polymer stamp is introduced to improve 2D layer transfer, which allows rotational control when stacking 2D layers. To verify the accuracy of rotational control, we demonstrate a …

ADAPTIVE CONTROL DESIGN FOR QUADROTORS
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) control has become a very important point of scientific study. The control design challenges of a UAV make it one of the most researched areas in modern control applications. This thesis specifically chooses the Quadrotor as the UAV platform. Considering the quadrotor …

A laboratory study of localized boundary mixing in a rotating stratified fluid
… where Lf is an equilibrium scale associated with rotational control of bar-generated turbulence. In accord with the model, outflux is constant, independent of stratification and restricted by rotation ... Later experiments investigate the role of lateral entrainment by confining the sides of the …
