3. 2. Design of Gyro Based Roll-Stabilization Controller for a Concept Amphibious Commuter Vehicle

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektro- och systemteknik (EES)

   Author : Ioannis Karagiannis; [2015]
   Keywords : Gyroscopic stabilization; roll stabilizer; LQG; Glover-McFarlane;

   Abstract : In this master thesis the gyroscopic stabilization of a two-wheeled amphibious concept vehicle is investigated. The key idea is to neutralize external torques applied on the vehicle by the counter torque produced from the two gyroscopes attached on the vehicle. Here the gyroscopes are used as actuators, not as sensors. READ MORE
