With extended autonomous capability planetary rovers will be able to carry out more exploration. This paper presents a method of control that provides such autonomy. This controller is based on Inverse Simulation, which considers the path to be taken and the dynamics of the rover. The principle of Inverse Simulation is that the time history for the desired trajectory is used as an input to the ...

This paper describes general modelling of radar target tracking scenarios. Manoeuvres are modelled using a stochastic continuous-time model. The goal of the paper is to compare two diierent manoeuvre models, called the Markov model and jump model respectively. Both approaches lead to Kalman lter banks, with the number of models kept constant by merging and pruning respectively. Simulation resul...

The tongue repositioning manoeuvre has been demonstrated to lead to a closed rest position of orofacial structures with increased contact of the velum with the tongue and a contact position of the tongue at the hard palate. Within the multifactorial etiology of snoring, the tongue repositioning manoeuvre was used as training method in conjunction with pressure indicating oral shields to reduce ...

The integration of loads analysis models using so called aerodynamic influence coefficients (AICs) is described. These AICs relate a change of normal velocity at panel control points to a change in panel pressure distribution, allowing to consider aeroelastic effects in a straight forward manner. The aerodynamic method employed for aeroelastic applications is typically the Vortex or Doublet Lat...

There is compelling evidence that free-floating endolymph particles in the posterior semicircular canal underlie most cases of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Recent pathological findings suggest that these particles are otoconia, probably displaced from the otolithic membrane in the utricle. They typically settle in the dependent posterior canal and render it sensitive to gravity....

Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are available on the market whilst the development of existing systems and new systems continues. Improving safety is one of the key purposes of these systems. ADAS would therefore be welcome to support overtaking manoeuvres, since these cause many fatal accidents each year. Before an ADAS could be developed that can assist drivers with overtaking a tho...
