Typical active safety systems that control the dynamics of passenger cars rely on the real-
time monitoring of the vehicle sideslip angle (VSA), together with other signals such as the …

Autonomous driving requires accurate information about the vehicle pose and motion state
in order to achieve precise tracking of the planned trajectory. In this paper we propose a …

The small-signal model of the incremental optical encoder introduced in this paper provides
an insight on the impact of this sensor in the dynamics of the motion control loop of a motor …

In this article, we propose learning and control strategies for a semiactive suspension
system in a full car using soft actor-critic (SAC) models on real roads, where many road …

In the multibody field the design of state observers proves useful for several tasks, ranging
from the synthesis of control schemes and fault detection strategies, to the identification of …

Vision guided robots have become an important element in the manufacturing industry. In
most current industrial applications, vision guided robots are controlled by a look-then-move …

This paper develops a data-based moving horizon estimation (MHE) method for agile
quadrotors. Accurate state estimation of the system is paramount for precise trajectory …

Modern control synthesis assumes that observability of a dynamic system is satisfied.
However, in particular, observability may not be met due to manufacturing cost. To cope with …

A novel two-stage approach is presented for improving the estimates of both the kinematic
state and the unknown external forces in rigid-link multibody systems with negligible joint …

Dexterous manipulation concerns the control of a robot hand to manipulate an object in a
desired manner. While classical dexterous manipulation strategies are based on stable …
