A complete, self-contained mathematical framework for modelling the coupled aeroelastic and flight dynamic behaviour of free-flying flexible aircraft subject to atmospheric gust encounters is presente…
Model Reference Adaptive Control based on Lyapunov stability theory is developed for gust load alleviation of nonlinear aeroelastic systems. The controller operates on a nonlinear reduced-order model …
This paper presents a critical and practical approach to the evolution of distribution network reconfiguration algorithms, tracing their development from foundational heuristic methods introduced in 1…
Image and video quality metrics, such as SSIM, LPIPS, and VMAF, aim to predict perceived visual quality and are often assumed to reflect principles of human vision. However, relatively few metrics exp…
The next generation of radar systems will include advanced digital front-end technology in the apertures allowing for spatially subdividing radar tasks over the array, the so-called split-aperture pha…
Autonomous robots are projected to significantly augment the manual workforce, especially in repetitive and hazardous tasks. For a successful deployment of such robots in human environments, it is cru…
Combining data-driven models that adapt online and model predictive control (MPC) has enabled effective control of nonlinear systems. However, when deployed on unstable systems, online adaptation may …
The skill to drift a car--i.e., operate in a state of controlled oversteer like professional drivers--could give future autonomous cars maximum flexibility when they need to retain control in adverse …
Navigating efficiently across vortical flow fields presents a significant challenge in various robotic applications. The dynamic and unsteady nature of vortical flows often disturbs the control of und…
Flexible front-end technology will become available in future multifunction radar systems to improve adaptability to the operational theatre. A potential concept to utilize this flexibility is to subd…
Plug-and-Play (PnP) algorithms are appealing alternatives to proximal algorithms when solving inverse imaging problems. By learning a Deep Neural Network (DNN) denoiser behaving as a proximal operator…
We present Self-Adaptive Robust Attention for Robotics Transformers (SARA-RT): a new paradigm for addressing the emerging challenge of scaling up Robotics Transformers (RT) for on-robot deployment. SA…
Integrated Access and Backhauling (IAB) is a viable approach for meeting the unprecedented need for higher data rates of future generations, acting as a cost-effective alternative to dense fiber-wired…
In this paper, we present a solution for providing personalized and instant feedback to English learners through a mobile application, called Flowchase, that is connected to a speech technology able t…
Parallel self-assembly is an efficient approach to accelerate the assembly process for modular robots. However, these approaches cannot accommodate complicated environments with obstacles, which restr…
Optical fibres aim to image in-vivo biological processes. In this context, high spatial resolution and stability to fibre movements are key to enable decision-making processes (e.g., for microendoscop…
Near the limits of adhesion, the forces generated by a tire are nonlinear and intricately coupled. Efficient and accurate modelling in this region could improve safety, especially in emergency situati…
Simulation-based probabilistic risk assessment (SPRA) is a systematic and comprehensive methodology that has been used and refined over the past few decades to evaluate the risks associated with compl…
Fluidically actuated soft robots have promising capabilities such as inherent compliance and user safety. The control of soft robots needs to properly handle nonlinear actuation dynamics, motion const…
We introduce a new class of iterative image reconstruction algorithms for radio interferometry, at the interface of convex optimization and deep learning, inspired by plug-and-play methods. The approa…
