Abstract 3D scanning is rapidly becoming a key maintenance tool. Aerospace was a pioneer in adopting 3D scanning technology because aircraft manufacture and maintenance require precision. Monitoring deterioration, removing components for maintenance, and verifying covert operations are not practical or helpful without technology.

Rudder roll stabilization for ships [PDF]
This paper describes the design of an autopilot for rudder roll stabilization for ships. This autopilot uses the rudder not only for course keeping but also for reduction of the roll. The system has a series of properties which make the controller design

A numerical and experimental study on the performance of a twisted rudder with wavy configuration
In this paper, a Wavy Twisted Rudder (WTR) is proposed to address the discontinuity of the twisted section and increase the stalling angle in comparison to a conventional full-spade Twisted Rudder (TR).

Study on tolerance control of flying-wing layout vectored thrust UAV
The flying-wing layout vectored thrust UAV often uses multiple sets of aerodynamic rudder surfaces and vector nozzles to jointly generate the required control force and torque, which belongs to a typical overdrive system. Multiple sets of rudder surfaces
