Analysis of airship lateral maneuverability

Journal of Aircraft, 1991
EQUATIONS of motion have been derived and used to investigate analytically lateral and directional maneuverability characteristics of an advanced airship configuration consisting of auxiliary aerodynamic and powered yaw control augmentation. Theoretical expressions for turning radius, sideslip angle, roll angle, and the corresponding rudder deflection ...

Does a Rigid Body Limit Maneuverability?

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2000
ABSTRACT Whether a rigid body limits maneuverability depends on how maneuverability is defined. By the current definition, the minimum radius of the turn, a rigid-bodied, spotted boxfish Ostracion meleagris approaches maximum maneuverability, i.e. it can spin around with minimum turning radii near zero.

Aeromechanics of Highly Maneuverable Bats

2008
Abstract : Bats fly with astounding agility, maneuverability and efficiency. Their flight mechanics are completely different from those of insects and birds and characterized by several unique aeromechanical features including: (1) complex three-dimensional articulated wing structures, (2) flexible wing skeletons, (3) anisotropic, highly elastic wing ...

Autonomous treaded multiple maneuverable rover

2016 International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Communication and Computational Technologies (ICCICCT), 2016
While designing a compact Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV), it must be capable to travel through complex topography on traversing within confined spaces. In many applications, it is practically expedient that the robots adopted must be economical, hence multiple rovers shall be employed to execute a prescribed task. The cost of the rover can be economized

Highly Maneuverable Nursery Straddle Vehicle

Transactions of the ASAE, 1985
ABSTRACT A highly maneuverable, wide straddle vehicle was found technically feasible as a prime mover for multi-purpose operations in ornamental nurseries. Hydraulic cylinders incorporated as extensible tie rods enable orthogonal steering of the vehicle.

Kinematics of maneuverable relativistic starship

Acta Astronautica, 2012
Abstract Maneuvering a relativistic starship is not as easy as it appears. The closer is its velocity to the speed of light the less maneuverable it appears to be relative to the rest frame. The relativistic kinematic equations are derived and the examples of starship trajectories are calculated on the condition of a constant proper acceleration and ...

Assessment of Maneuverability in Waves

Journal of Ship Research, 2019
Maneuverability of ships is presently standardized (normed) by rules of classification societies, shipowner requirements, and International Maritime Organization (IMO) standards for ship maneuverability. The latter address turning, initial turning, yaw checking, course keeping, and emergency stopping abilities, evaluated in simple standard maneuvers in
