  1. 21. Robust Control of Teleoperated Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

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

    Author : Chunyang Han; [2020]
    Keywords : communication delay; Model Predictive Control; linear discrete control system; reachability of target set and target tube; kommunikationsfördröjning; Model Predictive Control; linjärt diskret styrsystem; målsättning och målrörs tillgänglighet;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we first use the reachability theory to develop algorithms for state predictionunder delayed state or output measurements. We next develop control strategies forcollision avoidance and trajectory tracking of UAVs based on the devised algorithms andthe model predictive control theory. READ MORE

  2. 22. Robust control system development forVTOL-to-fixed wing flight transition withthe EcoSoar UAV : A masters thesis in Automatic Control

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

    Author : Robert Hedman; [2020]
    Keywords : drone; UAV; thesis; automatic; control; VTOL;

    Abstract : A non switching, non linear, quaternion based attitude P2 controller, together with a sensitivitynormalizing function for the control surfaces has been simulated and implemented on a flying fixedwing with non vectored engines. In simulations the controller worked well in all flight modes,hovering, transition and flying, and also rejected a simple wind disturbance in all modes. READ MORE

  3. 23. Identification and quantification of concrete cracks using image analysis and machine learning

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : JUAN CAMILO AVENDAÑO; [2020]
    Keywords : Unmanned Aerial Vehicle; UAV; Convolutional Neural Network; CNN; Crack quantification; Bridge inspection.;

    Abstract : Nowadays inspections of civil engineering structures are performed manually at close range to be able to assess damages. This requires specialized equipment that tends to be expensive and to produce closure of the bridge. Furthermore, manual inspections are time-consuming and can often be a source or risk for the inspectors. READ MORE

  4. 24. Battery and WiFi aware 3D exploration based on temporal logics

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

    Author : Idris Sahil; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) exploration is a rising field of interest in recent years. UAVs are agile and able to enter areas that humans cannot, making them ideal for exploration. To this end, many exploration algorithms have been developed and proven to work well in using UAVs. READ MORE

  5. 25. Direct multispectral photogrammetry for UAV-based snow depth measurements

    University essay from KTH/Geoinformatik

    Author : Kathrin Maier; [2019]
    Keywords : Unmanned Aerial Vehicles UAV ; snow depth; direct photogrammetry; multispectral imagery; cryosphere;

    Abstract : Due to the changing climate and inherent atypically occurring meteorological events in the Arctic regions, more accurate snow quality predictions are needed in order to support the Sámi reindeer herding communities in northern Sweden that struggle to adapt to the rapidly changing Arctic climate. Spatial snow depth distribution is a crucial parameter not only to assess snow quality but also for multiple environmental research and social land use purposes. READ MORE
