A Physics‐Informed Koopman Operator Framework for Decentralized Discrete‐Time Sequential Control of a Modular Aerial Parcel Delivery Robot

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a Physics‐Informed Koopman Operator (PIKO) framework integrated with a discrete‐time Sequential Action Control (SAC) for real‐time, decentralized control of a modular aerial parcel delivery robot composed of multiple independently actuated propeller modules.

Sliding Mode Control in Aerospace Applications: A Survey

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sliding mode control (SMC) enjoys robustness to matched and unmatched (in the case of minimum phase input‐output dynamics) bounded perturbations, and finite time convergence. Second‐order and higher‐order sliding mode control systems (2‐SMC/HOSMC) retain all the advantages of sliding mode control, but in addition can be applied to systems of ...

Linear System Identification and Control of a Low‐Cost High‐Performance Omnidirectional Marine Surface Vehicle for Swarming Applications

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine operations traditionally rely on human intervention, a costly and disruptive method. Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) offer a powerful alternative, capable of operating autonomously, for extended periods, and with various sensors for various missions.

Potential and kinetic shaping for control of underactuated mechanical systems [PDF]

Proceedings of the 2000 American Control Conference. ACC (IEEE Cat. No.00CH36334), 2000
This paper combines techniques of potential shaping with those of kinetic shaping to produce some new methods for stabilization of mechanical control systems. As with each of the techniques themselves, our method employs the energy methods and LaSalle's invariance principle.

Design‐for‐Benchmarking in Soft Robotics: Navigating Component‐System Dichotomy

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
Soft robotics faces a profound evaluation challenge: the Component‐System Dichotomy, where isolated component tests fail to predict integrated performance. This article presents a systematic survey of critical reporting gaps across actuation, sensing, and control.

Single Smooth Waveform Command‐Shaping Control of Overhead Crane Systems Utilizing Two‐Stage Acceleration–Deceleration Profile for Short‐Moving Point‐to‐Point Maneuver

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, Volume 6, Issue 2, Page 299-312, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Modern industrial demand for efficient material handling in confined spaces has driven the need for overhead cranes capable of short‐distance point‐to‐point maneuvers without compromising payload stability. Conventional three‐stage shaper profiles, experiencing acceleration, cruising, and deceleration, become inefficient or infeasible for ...
