Payload transportation and manipulation by rotorcraft drones are receiving a lot of attention
from the military, industrial and logistics research areas. The interactions between the UAV …

Unmanned air vehicle (UAV) systems for performing forestry applications have expanded in
recent decades and have great economic benefits. They are validated to be more appealing …

The use of delivery drones is currently hindered by the inability of transported objects to
maintain a steady position, which can result from roll-, pitch-, and heave-induced vibrations …

The issue of finite-time stability has garnered significant attention in the control systems of
quadrotor aerial vehicles. However, existing techniques for achieving finite-time control often …

In this article, a novel approach of a robust flight observer for a disturbance quadrotor
transporting a payload in the presence of multiple time-varying delays is proposed. The …

This letter presents a control framework for transporting a UAV slung-payload, which can
asymptotically stabilize not only the UAV but also the tether swing angles. By separating the …

This paper establishes the dynamic model of the angular velocity system of the 2-DOF
(degree of freedom) aerial manipulator, describes the coupling relationship between the …

This paper presents a model predictive control (MPC) approach based on the extended
disturbance observer (EDOB) for trajectory tracking of a coaxial octorotor unmanned aerial …

Controlling a quadrotor UAV is a growing interest in the field of control engineering due to
the increasing use of these flying machines in the field of the internet of things, so classic …

The proposed approach in this paper uses a nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC)
algorithm to control the swing angle and position of suspended loads using quadrotor UAVs …
