  • Nonlinear Control of Fixed-Wing UAVs with Time-Varying and Unstructured Uncertainties
    Kimon P. Valavanis / Matthew J. Rutherford / Michail G. Michailidis
    This book introduces a comprehensive and mathematically rigorous controller design for families of nonlinear systems with time-varying parameters and unstructured uncertainties. Although the presented methodology is general, the specific family of systems considered is the latest, NextGen, unconventional fixed-wing unmanned aircraft with circulation control or morphing wings, o...

  • Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
    Kimon P. Valavanis
    Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) have seen unprecedented levels of growth during the last decade in both military and civilian domains. However, it is anticipated that civilian applications will be dominant in the future, although there are still barriers to be overcome and technical challenges to be met. For example, integrating UAS into civilian space, fully autonomous navigat...

  • Linear and Nonlinear Control of Small-Scale Unmanned Helicopters
    Ioannis A. Raptis / Kimon P. Valavanis
    There has been significant interest for designing flight controllers for small-scale unmanned helicopters. Such helicopters preserve all the physical attributes of their full-scale counterparts, being at the same time more agile and dexterous. This book presents a comprehensive and well justified analysis for designing flight controllers for small-scale unmanned helicopters gua...

  • Intelligent Robotic Systems
    George N. Saridis / Kimon P. Valavanis
    Since the late 1960s, there has been a revolution in robots and industrial automation, from the design of robots with no computing or sensorycapabilities (first-generation), to the design of robots with limited computational power and feedback capabilities (second-generation), and the design of intelligent robots (third-generation), which possess...
