Dynamic Event‐Triggered Robust Model Predictive Control for Quadrotor Trajectory Tracking

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper addresses the trajectory tracking problem for a full‐state quadrotor subject to physical model constraints and unknown external disturbances. A robust tube‐based model predictive control (MPC) approach is successfully applied to the system, which is subject to bounded disturbances and hard constraints.

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 ...

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.

Quantifying aboveground herbaceous biomass in grassy ecosystems: a comparison of field and high‐resolution UAV‐LiDAR approaches

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The abundance of herbaceous vegetation in grassy ecosystems—which cover >25% of the world's land surface—is highly variable and impacts key ecological processes including carbon sequestration and support for grazing wildlife and livestock. Here, we present a method for using high‐resolution, UAV‐borne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) to estimate ...
