Semi-analytical guidance algorithm for autonomous close approach to non-cooperative low-gravity targets

open access: yes, 2014
An adaptive guidance algorithm for close approach to and precision landing on uncooperative low-gravity objects (e.g. asteroids) is proposed. The trajectory, updated by means of a minimum fuel optimal control problem solving, is expressed in a polynomial

Development of the Guidance Navigation and Control System of the Folaga AUV for Autonomous Acoustic Surveys in the WiMUST Project

open access: yesOCEANS 2018 MTS/IEEE Charleston, 2018
This paper deals with the development of the Guidance Navigation and Control (GNC) system of the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) used for acoustic surveys in the WiMUST projects. By exploiting the fact that the vehicle hull has a modular structure, a

Active Learning‐Accelerated Discovery of Fibrous Hydrogels with Tissue‐Mimetic Viscoelasticity

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Active learning accelerates the design of fibrous hydrogels that mimic the viscoelasticity of native tissues. By integrating multi‐objective optimization and closed‐loop experimentation, this approach efficiently identifies optimal formulations from thousands of possibilities and decouples elasticity and viscosity. The resulting hydrogels offer tunable

Adaptive backstepping control for optimal descent with embedded autonomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Using Lyapunov stability theory, an adaptive backstepping controller is presented in this paper for optimal descent tracking. Unlike the traditional approach, the proposed control law can cope with input saturation and failure which enables the embedded ...

Machine Learning‐Assisted Inverse Design of Soft and Multifunctional Hybrid Liquid Metal Composites

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A machine learning framework is presented for inverse design of synthesizable multifunctional composites containing both liquid metal and solid inclusions. By integrating physics‐based modeling, data‐driven prediction, and Bayesian optimization, the approach enables intelligent design of experiments to identify optimal compositions and realize these ...

A Model Predictive Stackelberg Solution to Missile Guidance Problems

open access: yesNanjing Hangkong Hangtian Daxue Xuebao
With the continuous enhancement of intelligence and maneuverability of tactical targets, traditional open-loop guidance strategies represented by the proportional navigation guidance law could hardly meet the tactical demands of the future high ...

Transfer Printing and Reconfiguration of Soft Electronics Using Digital Microfluidics and Laser Machining

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This paper presents a digital microfluidics‐based technique for transferring and reconfiguring soft nanomembranes. Laser‐machined nanothin membranes are picked up, transported, and aligned via tailored surface tension and the actuation of water droplets, enabling the development of flexible electronics, the integration of functional materials on 3D ...

A non-holonomic, highly human-in-the-loop compatible, assistive mobile robotic platform guidance navigation and control strategy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The provision of assistive mobile robotics for empowering and providing independence to the infirm, disabled and elderly in society has been the subject of much research. The issue of providing navigation and control assistance to users, enabling them to
