Hypersonic aircraft design [PDF]

open access: yes
A hypersonic aircraft is designed which uses scramjets to accelerate from Mach 6 to Mach 10 and sustain that speed for two minutes. Different propulsion systems were considered and it was decided that the aircraft would use one full scale turbofan-ramjet.

Robust Control Design and Analysis Based on Lifting Linearization of Nonlinear Systems Under Uncertain Initial Conditions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a robust control synthesis and analysis framework for nonlinear systems with uncertain initial conditions. First, a deep learning‐based lifting approach is proposed to approximate nonlinear dynamical systems with linear parameter‐varying (LPV) state‐space models in higher‐dimensional spaces while simultaneously ...

Deep Reinforcement Learning‐Based Control for Real‐Time Hybrid Simulation of Civil Structures

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Real‐time Hybrid Simulation (RTHS) is a cyber‐physical technique that studies the dynamic behavior of a system by combining physical and numerical components that are coupled through a boundary condition enforcer. In structural engineering, the numerical components are subjected to environmental loads that become dynamic displacements of the ...

Friction Shock Absorbers and Reverse Thrust for Fast Multirotor Landing on High‐Speed Vehicles

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Typical landing gears of small uninhabited aerial vehicles (UAV) limit their capability to land on vehicles moving at more than 20–50 km/h due to high drag forces, high pitch angles and potentially high relative horizontal velocities. To enable landing at higher speeds, a combination of lightweight friction shock absorbers and reverse thrust ...

Long‐Range Time‐Correlated Single‐Photon Counting Lidar 3D‐Reconstruction From a Moving Ground Vehicle

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Time‐correlated single‐photon counting (TCSPC) lidar enables high‐resolution 3D imaging at kilometer range. While previous works have covered long range TCSPC 3D imaging from either stationary or airborne platforms, this is, to the best of our knowledge, the first attempt that use a moving ground vehicle. Fusing measurements taken at different

Subterranean Mine Inspection Using the Prometheus Re‐Configurable Drone

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper describes the design, development, and real‐world testing of an autonomous drone for subterranean exploration, known as “Prometheus.” Driven by requirements from industry that the drone be able to be deployed through areas of restricted access, Prometheus was designed to be directly deployed through a 150 mm aperture.
