Flatness-Based High Frequency Control of a Hydraulic Actuator [PDF]
This paper presents the design and implementation of a nonlinear feedforward control algorithm for a hydraulic actuator driven by a multistage servo valve. Combined with a conventional feedback control algorithm, high frequencies can be achieved even for large-scale strokes.

Real-Time Trajectory Planning and Control for Constrained UAV Based on Differential Flatness
The trajectory planning of UAV with nonholonomic constraints is usually taken as differential algebraic equation to solve the optimal control problem of functional extremum under the condition of inequality constraints.

A Test for Differential Flatness by Reduction to Single Input Systems [PDF]
For nonlinear control systems (p inputs), we present a test for flatness. The method consists of making an initial guess for p-1 of the flat outputs, which may involve parameters still to be determined.

Flatness-based Feedforward Control of Wind Turbines Using Lidar [PDF]
Current lidar technology is offering a promising opportunity to take a fresh look at wind turbine control. This work evaluates a flatness-based feedforward approach, that allows to calculate the control action based on trajectories of the rotor speed and tower motion using wind measurements.
