The Wright Brothers: First Aeronautical Engineers and Test Pilots [PDF]
, 2003 Sir George Cayley invented the conventional configuration of the airplane at the turn of the 19th century. Otto Lilienthal realized that building a successful aircraft meant learning how to fly; he became the first hang glider pilot and also the first ...

Positioning in time and space: cost-effective exterior orientation for airborne archaeological photographs [PDF]
, 2013 Since manned, airborne aerial reconnaissance for archaeological purposes is often characterised by more-or-less random photographing of archaeological features on the Earth, the exact position and orientation of the camera during image acquisition ...

Global tracking for an underactuated ships with bounded feedback controllers [PDF]
, 2012 In this paper, we present a global state feedback tracking controller for underactuated surface marine vessels. This controller is based on saturated control inputs and, under an assumption on the reference trajectory, the closed-loop system is globally ...

Direct Yaw-Moment Control Integrated With Wheel Slip Regulation for Heavy Commercial Road Vehicles
IEEE Access, 2022 When a road vehicle is subjected to combined cornering and emergency braking, it potentially has a greater risk of wheel lock followed by loss of steerability and/or undesired yaw motion.

Flight Mechanics and Control of Escape Manoeuvres in Hummingbirds. I. Flight Kinematics [PDF]
, 2016 Hummingbirds are nature’s masters of aerobatic manoeuvres. Previous research shows that hummingbirds and insects converged evolutionarily upon similar aerodynamic mechanisms and kinematics in hovering.

Decoupling Control of 2WS Cars Using Direct Yaw Moment
Journal of Control, Automation and Systems Engineering, 2005 There exists a structural limit of 2WS cars that drivers would not like simultaneously to follow the desired path and attenuate moments resulting from disturbances because lateral acceleration and yaw rate are coupled inherently. In order to overcome the limit, the 4WS cars that have rear wheel steering as an additional input have been introduced.
