The proportional–integral–derivative (PID) control is the most common control approach
used in industrial and commercial mechatronics products. The PID control has been relevant …

Under harsh geographical conditions where manned flight is not possible, the ability of the
unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to successfully carry out the payload hold–release mission …

This article provides an overview of certain direct data-driven control results, where control
sequences are computed from (noisy) data collected during offline control experiments …

A quadcopter is underactuated where there are 6° of motion with only four rotors to control
all six motions. Varying the speed of the four rotors can produce thrust, roll, pitch and yaw …

This paper aims to develop a fractional control approach for quadrotor trajectory tracking. A
fractional-order integrator (PI) with a feedback derivative scheme is designed to control each …

This paper presents a fully automatic method, BladeView, for drone-based wind turbine
blade inspection using an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). With the need for highly efficient …

Flight Dynamics, Simulation, and Control of Aircraft: For Rigid and Flexible Aircraft explains
the basics of non-linear aircraft dynamics and the principles of control-configured aircraft …

Large companies such as Amazon and Google are currently testing deliveries using
unmanned drones, intending to use these drones on the market. Topics tackled in this field …

The collision avoidance problem for multicopters is solved based on the combination of
geometrical constraints and kinematics equation through this paper. The method is …

In this brief, we present a data-driven framework for real-time estimation of reachable sets for
control systems where the plant is modeled using neural networks (NNs). We utilize a …
