Abstract: In this paper, the possibility of performing severe collision avoidance maneuvers using trajectory optimization is investigated. A two degree of freedom vehicle model was used to represent dynamics of the vehicle. First, ...

Abstract: This paper presents an adaptive control strategy to optimize the sailing maneuvers of an AC75 foiling sailboat competing in America's Cup. Foiling yachts have nonlinear, high-dimensional, and unstable dynamics due to several ...

Abstract: We present a physics-inspired input/output predictor of lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) for online state-of-charge (SOC) prediction. The complex electrochemical behavior of batteries results in nonlinear and high-dimensional ...

Abstract: Li-ion batteries are the preferred choice of energy storage in many applications. However, the potential for fire and explosion due to mechanical damage remains a safety concern. Currently, there are no criteria for the ...
