Hybrid Model-Based and Data-Driven Trajectory Tracking Control for Flapping-Wing Microaerial Vehicles.

Trajectory tracking for flapping-wing microaerial vehicles (FWMAVs) is challenging due to inherent nonlinear dynamics and unsteady aerodynamics. While incremental model predictive control (IMPC) effectively manages constraints, its reliance on fixed weighting matrices limits performance during aggressive maneuvers. Con...

Robust Model Predictive Control Design for a Wind Turbine Using Invariant Set Estimation

This study proposes a robust model predictive controller (RMPC) for the 5 MW fatigue, aerodynamics, structures, and turbulence (FAST) model, a popular wind turbine model developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, to cope with fluctuations and uncertainties associated with the wind more effectively than ex...

Hierarchical Control of Hydraulic Manipulators via Identifier–Critic Scheme and Robust Control

High-precision motion control of multidegree-of-freedom (multi-DOF) hydraulic manipulators remains a significant challenge due to their highly coupled mechanical dynamics and strong nonlinearities. To address these difficulties, this article proposes a hierarchical control framework to effectively deal with the rigid-b...

An L1 Adaptive Control Method with an Extended State Observer for Fixed-Wing UAV Attitude Control

To address issues such as nonlinear strong coupling, time-varying parameters, and external wind disturbances in fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) operating in complex flight environments, this study develops a composite attitude control method integrating L1 adaptive control with an extended state observer (ES...

Nonlinear Disturbance Observer-Based Robust Control for Flapping-Wing Aerial Manipulators

Flapping-wing aerial manipulators (FW-AEROMs) hold considerable promise for delivering high efficiency and minimal mass in robotic applications. Nevertheless, their inherently nonlinear, time-varying dynamics render them particularly vulnerable to modeling errors and environmental perturbations, thereby compromising ma...

Gust Load Alleviation Based on Active Disturbance Rejection Control for a Flying-Wing Aircraft with Circulation Control Actuators

Flying-wing aircraft are more susceptible to wind disturbance due to their smaller wing loading, making gust alleviation critical for flight performance and safety. Conventional control surfaces may exhibit insufficient manipulation efficiency on such configurations, motivating the adoption of active flow control, part...
