Synopsis

Modelling and Control of Mini-Flying Machines This book will sell because it gives new insights into two staple control problems -- the rotary aircraft and the VTOL fixed wing aircraft. The author's reputation in non-linear control will also raise sales. Full description

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Modelling and Control of Mini-Flying Machinesis an exposition of models developed to assist in the motion control of various types of mini-aircraft: Planar Vertical Take-off and Landing aircraft; helicopters; quadrotor mini-rotorcraft; other fixed-wing aircraft; blimps. For each of these it propounds: detailed models derived from Euler-Lagrange methods; appropriate nonlinear control strategies and convergence properties; real-time experimental comparisons of the performance of control algorithms; review of the principal sensors, on-board electronics, real-time architecture and communications systems for mini-flying machine control, including discussion of their performance; detailed explanation of the use of the Kalman filter to flying machine localization. To researchers and students in nonlinear control and its applications Modelling and Control of Mini-Flying Machines provides valuable insights to the application of real-time nonlinear techniques in an always challenging area.

Biographie de l'auteur :

Rogelio Lozano has worked in worked at a number of institutions with a high reputation for control engineering - the University of Newcastle in Australia, Nasa's Langley Research Center and now as CNRS Research Director at the University of Compiègne. He is a very experienced author in the control field being an associate editor of both Automatica and International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing. He is the co-author of 3 previous titles for Springer all of them in the Communications and Control Engineering series: Landau, I.D, Lozano, R. and M'Saad, M.
