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. Using Quality Diversity in Genetic Programming to Improve Automatic Learning of Behaviour Trees

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Alexander Willemsen; [2023]
   Keywords : Behaviour Trees; Genetic Programming; Quality Diversity; Gedragsbomen; Genetische Programmering; Kwaliteitsdiversiteit; Beteendeträd; Genetisk Programmering; Kvalitetsmångfald;

   Abstract : One of the main purposes of the fields of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence is to develop solutions that can autonomously solve problems. An important part of this is synthesising behaviours of robots. Behaviour Trees are a tree structure that enables combining existing lower level behaviours into a high level behaviour through task switching. 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. Evaluation of Velocity Obstacle Approaches for Groups of Agents Navigating Everyday Scenarios

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Jessica Gorwat; Amanda Hallstedt; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : As recent years have seen an increase in use of robotics in both public and private spaces, evaluations to ensure safe and efficient navigation through common scenarios are needed. The same evaluations can improve simulations of human behaviour used in for example evacuation simulations. READ MORE

6. 5. Arbitrary motion Synthetic Aperture Radar

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

   Author : Filip Alberius; Erik Rolander; [2023]
   Keywords : RADAR; SAR; Synthetic Aperture Radar; Pulsed Coherent Radar; PCR; VR; Virtual Reality; IMU; Inertial Measurment Unit; VAA; Virtual Antenna Array; Obstacle detection; Signal Processing; Matched Filter Method.; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Syftet med denna avhandling är att utveckla en ny metod för att producera bilder med syntetisk aperturradar (SAR), med utgångspunkt i scenarier med arbiträr rörelse vad gäller radarsensorn. SAR är en väletablerad metod för att skapa 2- eller 3-dimensionella radarbilder, som traditionellt sett antar att radar-sensorns rörelse är linjär och förutsägbar. READ MORE
