Abstract: This paper proposes an adaptive control scheme that minimizes the leastmeansquare (LMS) value of the plant output while meeting the constraints of canceling deterministic exogenous signals generated by a priori dynamics. ...

Abstract: Rotor unbalance, common phenomenon of rotational systems, manifests itself as a periodic disturbance synchronized with the rotor's angular velocity. In active magnetic bearing (AMB) systems, feedback control is required ...

Abstract: A mechanism consisting of twisting and tilting joints is introduced to provide omnidirectional thrust-vectoring capabilities to a quadrotor system. This mechanism eliminates mechanical constraints and kinematic singularities ...

Abstract: An online fast path following control algorithm subject to contouring error tolerance and other prototypical constraints, analogous to a racing car within track boundaries, is presented. A receding horizon quadratic ...
