WCA: A New Efficient Nonlinear Adaptive Control Allocation for Planar Hexacopters
This paper presents an efficient control allocation (CA) strategy which significantly improves the flight performance of a planar hexacopter. This allocation maps the desired control vector composed of the thrust and torques in roll, pitch, and yaw axis,

Optimizing Fuel Consumption in Thrust Allocation for Marine Dynamic Positioning Systems [PDF]
In offshore maritime operations, automated systems capable to maintain the vessel’s position and heading using its own propellers and thrusters to compensate exogenous disturbances, like wind, waves and currents, are referred to as Marine Dynamic Positioning (DP) Systems.

Autonomous Attitude Reconstruction Analysis for Propulsion System with Typical Thrust Drop Fault
The propulsion system is one of the important and vulnerable sub-systems in a strap-on launch vehicle. Among different failure modes, the thrust drop fault is the most common and remediable one. It degrades vehicle attitude tracking ability directly.
