Approximate Reachability for Feedback Linearizable Systems

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
The backwards reachable set for a dynamical system is the set of states for which there exists a constraint admissible trajectory that reaches a given terminal set. Conventional grid‐based approaches for computing these sets are intractable for many applications.

Chance-constrained optimal power flow for improving line flow and voltage security of power transmission networks

Autonomous Intelligent Systems
With the growing penetration of renewable energy, the impact of renewable uncertainties on power system secure operation is of increasing concern. Based on a recently developed linear power flow model, we formulate a chance-constrained optimal power flow

Influence of Thermal Cycling on Friction, Wear, and Damage Evolution of Fused Deposition Modeling of 3D‐Printed Glass Fiber Reinforced Polylactic Acid Composites

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the experimental procedure of the specimens. ABSTRACT This research work investigated the effect of the cyclic thermo‐hygrometric aging regime between −20°C and +40°C with 0–400 cycles on the reciprocating tribological properties of fused deposition modeling (FDM) printed polylactic acid (PLA) and the same material reinforced ...

Unmanned Aerial Systems for Corrosion Detection: Multi‐Sensor Technologies, Challenges, and Opportunities for Next‐Generation Inspection

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corrosion remains a critical threat to the integrity and service life of infrastructure in industries such as oil, gas, construction, renewable energy, and transportation. Traditional inspection methods, being labor‐intensive, hazardous, and often subjective, fall short in addressing modern inspection demands.

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 ...

Thrust Characteristics of a Ducted Fan of a Quadcopter in Various Flight Modes

Fluids
Ducted fans are widely used in vehicles with a high engine power per unit swept area, including hovercraft propulsors and vertical take-off aircraft. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a powerful tool for selecting the aerodynamic configuration of new

Classification of tree species and standing dead trees in Boreal forests using UAV‐based RGB, multispectral, and LiDAR point clouds

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We evaluated single‐ and multi‐sensor UAV approaches for classifying tree species and standing dead trees in boreal forests, focusing on key biodiversity indicators such as European aspen. Using spectral and structural features extracted from RGB, multispectral (MSP), and LiDAR point clouds for 1,205 field‐measured trees, we compared classification ...
