Traditional methodologies for precise inspection of bridges (pavement, beams, column cap, column, joints and inside box girder, etc.) with By-bridge equipment, Aerial Work Platform (AWP) or via ropes have several limits that can be overcome by using Unmanned Vehicles (UAVs). The constant development in this field allows us to go beyond the manual control use a single UAV. In context rules, research provides new inputs multilevel approach used today methods structural drones. Today, UAV-based...
This paper presents the issue of determining blast load on an engineering structure. In cases industrial accidents or terrorist attacks, in many it is necessary to determine explosion parameters response structure, preferably a simple and time-saving manner. such way, empirical relationships can be used estimate selected load. Many have been derived past, but not all are suitable for different types explosions. article compares validates experimentally determined chosen explosive with...
This paper proposes a kinematic model for swarm of agents able to exhibit the formation vortices around given reference trajectory and deal with uncertainty in information. One main novelties this is use two coordinates coupling matrices that weight attraction interaction among agents. Each agent may exchange information all other its neighbourhood described by detection range related proximity sensor each equipped with. The communication topology graph evolution studied too sufficient...
In this paper, an hybrid distributed MPC strategy has been developed for teams of unmanned vehicle moving in uncertain and narrowed environments. The proposed solution does not require the exact knowledge obstacle /or corridor geometry. resulting algorithm is conceived so that only leader platoon within a computes admissible control actions will be successively used by all followers.
