  1. 1. Ensuring safe docking maneuvers on floating platform using Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC)

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Federico Gatti; [2024]
    Keywords : Robotics; Space Engineering; Docking Maneuvers; Floating Platforms; Nonlinear MPC; MPC; Barrier function; PWM;

    Abstract : Docking maneuvers are a relevant part of the modern space mission, requiring precision and safety to ensure the success of the overall mission. This thesis proposes using a non-linear Model Predictive Control (MPC) as a controller with various constraints to ensure safe docking maneuvers for a satellite. READ MORE

  3. 2. Early-Stage Validation of Autonomous Vehicles in Ambiguous Environments : A Systems-Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) of an Autonomous Military Defense Industry Vehicle

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Maria Axelsson; [2024]
    Keywords : STPA; System Safety; AFRY; Milrem Robotics; Safety Analysis; Autonomous Vehicles; Control Structure; Control Model; NGV; THeMIS; themis; THEMIS;

    Abstract : This report delves into the early developmental phase of an autonomous vehicle designed for defense applications. Navigating diverse terrains, this unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) poses unique challenges, particularly in the absence of clearly defined directives found in typical traffic scenarios. READ MORE

  4. 3. Reaction Wheel Control System for a Self-balancing Bike : Reaction wheel based control mechanism for a small scale prototype bike

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Reman Soryani; [2023]
    Keywords : Mechatronics; Control Theory; Reaction Wheel; PID Controller; Robotics; Mekatronik; Reglerteknik; Mekanik; PID reglering; Robotik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the design of a self balancing prototype bike with a reaction wheel as balancing mechanism will be investigated. Bikes are inherently unstable systems, that dynamically resemble an inverted pendulum at a stand still. READ MORE

  5. 4. Optimal Gait Control of Soft Quadruped Robot by Model-based Reinforcement Learning

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Niu Xuezhi; [2023]
    Keywords : Quadruped Robots; Soft Robotics; Reinforcement Learning; Gait Control; Model-Based Control Optimization; Kvadrupedroboter; Mjukrobotik; Förstärkningsinlärning; Gångkontroll; Optimering av robotkontroll;

    Abstract : Quadruped robots offer distinct advantages in navigating challenging terrains due to their flexible and shock-absorbing characteristics. This flexibility allows them to adapt to uneven surfaces, enhancing their maneuverability. READ MORE

  6. 5. Statically stable walking robot : Gait pattern generation for a quadruped using PID control

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Awad Alnasrallah; Erik Ebbesen; [2023]
