Finite element analysis of vehicle-structure interactions during launching of remotely piloted air-vehicles

The problem of finite element modeling and analysis of dynamic interactions between the launcher and a remotely piloted aircraft structure is considered. The governing equations of motion are shown to constitute a set of ordinary differential equations with time varying structural matrices. An iterative strategy that treats separately the dynamics of the launcher and the aircraft is developed. ...

Control System Architecture for a Remotely Operated Unmanned Land Vehicle

The U.S. Army Laboratory Command, as part of its Robotics Initiative, is developing a testbed for cooperative, real-time control of unmanned land vehicles. The system requires the development and integration of many elements which allow the vehicles to perform both autonomous and teleoperated functions. The National Institute of Standards and Technology is supporting this program by developing ...
