Spherical robots have garnered increasing interest for their applications in exploration,
tunnel inspection, and extraterrestrial missions. Diverse designs have emerged, including …

In this paper, an adaptive control method using multiple models with second level
adaptation is proposed for a class of nonlinear multi-input multi-output (MIMO) coupled …

Landing of unmanned helicopters is a challenging maneuver which can be seriously
affected by GPS sensor reliability. This work explores an alternative approach to GPS …

The hovering capabilities of unmanned helicopters can be seriously affected by wind. One
possible solution for improving hovering performance under such circumstances is the use …

Human activities in maintenance of industrial plants pose elevated risks as well as
significant costs due to the required shutdowns of the facility. An aerial robotic system with …

In this paper, an output feedback linearization based controller is designed to stabilize the
Twin Rotor Multi-input Multi-output System (TRMS), and make its beam track accurately a …

The aim of this paper is to describe in detail the μ-synthesis of a miniature helicopter integral
attitude controller of high order and to present results from the hardware-in-the-loop …

One DOF (degree of freedom) Twin Rotor multi-input multi-output system (TRMS) is one of
the benchmarked dynamical systems which has striking comparability with Helicopter …

In this paper an aerial robotic system with two arms for long reach manipulation (ARS-LRM)
while flying is presented. The system consists of a multirotor with a long bar extension that …

The hovering capabilities of helicopters can be seriously affected by wind. This could be
even more significant in the small-size platforms used for developing unmanned aerial …
