Bird strikes in aviation endanger both human and avian lives and costs the airline industry
millions of dollars due to aircraft repairs and flight delays and cancellations. Looking …

This paper addresses the problem of efficiently managing clean-energy aerial vehicles for
advanced air mobility (AAM) in a distributed manner. A concept of operation for AAM …

As interest in the Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) vision continues to grow, so does the
complexity of the systems involved, particularly with the integration of Unmanned Aerial …

Near-future air taxi operations with electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft will be
constrained by the need for frequent recharging and limited takeoff and landing pads in …

This paper presents a data-driven method to identify the thrust and aerodynamic drag forces
of off-the-shelf multicopters in energy-consumption-modeling research for Advanced Air …

What are the effects of wind on the planning of the path when creating a path based on
distance, time, and energy? For an Unmanned Aerial System, this question can be …

This dissertation is started with a novel decision-making framework designed to address
communication challenges in distributed multi-agent systems. The framework focuses on …

This study presents a real-time control system designed to minimize flight energy
consumption under dynamic wind conditions. A physics-based energy-per-distance (EPD) …
