RISPareto Optimal and Dual-Objective Geometric and Structural Design of an Underwater Kite for Closed-Loop Flight Performance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the formulation and results for a control-aware optimization of the combined geometric and structural design of an energy-harvesting underwater kite. Because kite-based energy-harvesting systems, both ...
Performance Analysis and Technical Feasibility Assessment of a Transforming Roving Rolling Explorer Rover for Mars Exploration
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper explores a two state rover concept called the Transforming RovingRolling Explorer (TRREx). The first state allows the rover to travel like a conventional 6wheeled rover. The second state is a sphere to permit ...
Autonomous Closed-Loop Experimental Characterization and Dynamic Model Validation of a Scaled Underwater Kite
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the closed-loop experimental framework and dynamic model validation for a 1/12-scale underwater kite design. The pool-based tow testing framework described herein, which involves a fully actuated, ...
