Recently, there has been growing interest in develo** unmanned aircraft systems (UAS)
with advanced onboard autonomous capabilities. This paper describes the current state of …

With ever increasing global demand and depleting resources for fossil fuels, oil and gas
industry is now positively looking for advanced robotic solutions to increase their productivity …

Autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that can execute aggressive (ie, high-speed
and high-acceleration) maneuvers have attracted significant attention in the past few years …

We address the problem of position trajectory-tracking and path-following control design for
underactuated autonomous vehicles in the presence of possibly large modeling parametric …

Planning the path of an autonomous, agile vehicle in a dynamic environment is a very
complex problem, especially when the vehicle is required to use its full maneuvering …

This article is an introduction to feedback control design for a family of robotic aerial vehicles
with vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) capabilities such as quadrotors, ducted-fan tail …

This thesis is devoted to nonlinear control, reduction, and classification of underactuated
mechanical systems. Underactuated systems are mechanical control systems with fewer …

Problems in the motion control of aircraft are of perennial interest to the control engineer as
they tend to be of complex and nonlinear nature. Modelling and Control of Mini-Flying …

This paper presents the design and control of a multirotor-based aerial manipulator
developed for outdoor operation. The multi-rotor has eight rotors and large payload to …

The formation control problem of a team of Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) Unmanned
Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) with communication delays is addressed. Based on the extraction …
