Robotic weeding of a maize field based on navigation data of the tractor that performed the seeding (Preprint) [PDF]
This research presents robotic weeding of a maize field based on navigation data of the tractor that performed the seeding. The availability of tractors equipped with RTK-DGPS based automatic guidance potentially enables robots to perform subsequent ...

Slip-compensated odometry for tracked vehicle on loose and weak slope
Odometry is widely used to localize wheeled and tracked vehicles because of its simplicity and continuity. Odometric calculations integrate the wheel or track’s rotation speed. The accuracy of position thus calculated, is affected by slippage between the

Dynamic simulation on vibration control of marching tank gun based on adaptive robust control
In order to better understand the dynamic behavior and decrease the muzzle vibration of marching tank, a mechanical–electrical–hydraulic integrated dynamic model of marching tank was established based on a novel dynamic co-simulation method.
