Cable-suspended load carried by multiple unman-ned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has
applications in many areas. However, most existing aerial load transportation works are …

This paper studies the development of a novel quadrotor aerial transportation system, which
carries payload with four cables. The possible stable configurations are discussed to show …

In this article, a new passivity-based controller is proposed for stable cotransportation of a
cable-suspended payload by a number of quadrotors. Nominal proportional–derivative …

This paper addresses the problem of dam** vibrations of a cable‐suspended payload
during positioning of the quadrotor. A nonlinear model is derived for the coupled quadrotor …

This article presents an observer-based adaptive sliding mode controller for a fully-actuated
hexacopter unmanned aerial vehicle, designed for trajectory tracking in a perturbed …

Groups of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly utilized in transportation task
as the combined strength allows to increase the maximum payload. However, the resulting …

This paper considers the cooperative transport problem of a cable-suspended rigid bar with
two rotorcraft UAVs considering collision avoidance, weight distribution, and wind …

This paper proposes a control method with input shapers to complete the cooperative
transportation of a slender payload using two quadrotors under a leader-follower framework …

Aiming to address and contribute to the topic of load transportation using aerial vehicles, this
work presents a cooperative system using two quadrotors to carry a rod-shaped load. The …

In this paper we address the control problem of aerial cable suspended load transportation,
using multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). First, the dynamical model of the coupled …
