An open problem in disturbance/uncertainty estimator based control is to obtain explicit
mathematical expressions for robust stability, performance, and bandwidth requirement. This …

Autopilot failures have caused fatal results for both military and civilian applications, leading
to loss of life and property. Major contributing factors are disturbances (eg, winds), …

In this paper, the existence of a solution for the transformation of the disturbances from the
unmatched cases to the matched one is investigated. The usage of matched/unmatched …

In this work robust temperature control of a thermoelectric cooler (TEC) via $$\mu $$ μ -synthesis
is studied. An uncertain dynamical model for the TEC that is suitable for robust control …

This paper introduces a full system modeling strategy for a syringe pump and soft pneumatic
actuators(SPAs). The soft actuator is conceptualized as a beam structure, utilizing a second-…

This paper introduces a novel design method that enhances the force/torque, bendability,
and controllability of soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs). The complex structure of the soft …

This paper presents a method for the estimation of unknown disturbances for high precision
gimbal systems. Alternative to the classical methods of model inversion and filtering, we …

Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) algorithm is a powerful approach to optimize the parameters of
a neural network (NN). Given a training dataset, the algorithm synthesizes the best path …

Autopilot systems for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and aircrafts provide flight missions
without need of human input and make them more reliable and efficient. The first step of …
