Written by leading experts in the field, this book provides the state-of-the-art in terms of fault tolerant control applicable to civil aircraft. The book consists of five parts and includes online material.
Computer scientists have long appreciated that the relationship between algorithms and architecture is crucial. Broadly speaking the more specialized the architecture is to a particular algorithm then the more efficient will be the computation. The penalty is that the architecture will become useless for computing anything other than that algorithm. This message holds for the algorithms used in real-time automatic control as much as any other field. These Proceedings will provide researchers in this field with a useful up-to-date reference source of recent developments.
This book offers a complete overview of fault-tolerant flight control techniques. Discussion covers the necessary equations for the modeling of small UAVs, a complete system based on extended Kalman filters, and a nonlinear flight control and guidance system.
Space vehicles have become increasingly complex in recent years, and the number of missions has multiplied as a result of extending frontiers in the exploration of our planetary system and the universe beyond. The advancement of automatic control in aerospace reflects these developments. Key areas covered in these proceedings include: the size and complexity of spacecrafts and the increasingly stringent performance requirements to be fulfilled in a harsh and unpredictable environment; the merger of space vehicles and airplanes into space planes to launch and retrieve payloads by reusable winged vehicles; and the demand to increase space automation and autonomy to reduce human involvement as much as possible in manned, man-tended and unmanned missions. This volume covers not only the newly evolving key technologies but also the classical issues of guidance, navigation and control.
This proceedings includes original, unpublished, peer-reviewed research papers from the International Conference on Wireless Communications, Networking and Applications (WCNA2022), held in Wuhan, Hubei, China, from December 16 to 18, 2022. The topics covered include but are not limited to wireless communications, networking and applications. The papers showcased here share the latest findings on methodologies, algorithms and applications in communication and network, making the book a valuable asset for professors, researchers, engineers, and university students alike.
Dieses Buch enthält die Beiträge der 4. GI/ITG/GMA-Fachtagung über Fehlertolerierende Rechensysteme, die im September 1989 in einer Reihe von Tagungen in München 1982, Bonn 1984 sowie Bremerhaven 1987 veranstaltet wurde. Die 31 Beiträge, darunter 4 eingeladene, sind teils in deutscher, überwiegend aber in englischer Sprache verfa€t. Insgesamt wird durch diese Beiträge die Entwicklung der Konzeption und Implementierung fehlertoleranter Systeme in den letzten zwei Jahren vor allem in Europa dokumentiert. Sämtliche Beiträge berichten über neue Forschungs- oder Entwicklungsergebnisse.
The symposium held in Reading in March 1992 celebrated the completion of a 5-year Initiative in the Engineering Applications of Transputers. It reviewed achievements in a range of applications and supporting fields and predicted future developments. This book represents a collection of articles presented at this meeting, as well as independent reviews of the Transputer Initiative.
A three-volume work bringing together papers presented at 'SAFEPROCESS 2003', including four plenary papers on statistical, physical-model-based and logical-model-based approaches to fault detection and diagnosis, as well as 178 regular papers.
