Online Approximation-Based Aircraft State Estimation
(Birkhauser,Boston, 2003)
This chapter derives algorithms to estimate the aircraft state vector and to approximate the nonlinear forces and moments acting on the aircraft. The forces and moments are approximated as functions of (a portion of) the ...
Neural, Fuzzy, and Approximation-Based Control
(IEEE Press, 2001)
Relations between information theory, robustness and statistical mechanics of stochastic uncertain systems via large deviation theory
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2006)
Robustness issues of stochastic uncertain controlled systems are intimately related to concepts from information theory and statistical mechanics. These relations are unveiled by using the theory of large deviations through ...
Cooperative Control Design for Uninhabited Air Vehicles
(Springer US, 2003)
The main objective of this research is to develop and evaluate the performance of strategies for cooperative control of autonomous air vehicles that seek to gather information about a dynamic target environment, evade ...
Plant Reliability in Monopolies and Duopolies: A Comparison of Market Outcomes with Socially Optimal Levels
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2009)
This chapter investigates the interaction between system availability/reliability, economic restructuring, and regulating constraints. Specifically, the effects of restructuring on electricity markets are analyzed via the ...
Antenna Applications of Negative Refractive Index Transmission-Line (NRI-TL) Metamaterials
(wiley, 2007)
One-dimensional (1D) and to a lesser extent two-dimensional negative refractive index transmission-line (NRI-TL) metamaterials and corresponding antenna applications have been presented. An expression for the total phase ...
On-line Fault Detection, Diagnosis, Isolation and Accommodation of Dynamical Systems with Actuator Failures
(Springer London, 2001)
A general framework for the on-line detection, diagnosis, isolation and accommodation for a class of actuator faults in dynamical systems is developed. This framework, which addresses both abrupt and incipient faults, ...
