The objective is to design a model based controller for a small radio-controlled helicopter in hover. To this end, a multi-input multi-output state-space model is identiied from experimental data using linear estimation. A stabilizing H1 controller with setpoint tracking is designed and is compared to a standard LQG controller.

The Short-Haul-Civil-tiltrotor (SHCT) component of the NASA Aviation System Capacity Program is an effort to develop the technologies needed for a potential 40-passenger civil tiltrotor. The variable diameter tiltrotor (VDTR) is a Sikorsky concept aimed at improving tiltrotor hover and cruise performance currently limited by disk loading that is much higher in hover than conventional helicopter...

The open-source Eclipse platform has become hugely popular as an integrated development environment (IDE) for Java, mainly because of its editing features. The Java IDE comes with code highlighting, hover information, code completion, quick fixes and many more. It supports the development process by highlighting problematic aspects of the code and providing a convenient and robust way to improv...

Title of thesis: EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF A QUAD-ROTOR BIPLANE MICRO AIR VEHICLE Christopher Michael Bogdanowicz Master of Science, 2015 Thesis directed by: Dr. Inderjit Chopra Department of Aerospace Engineering Micro air vehicles are expected to perform demanding missions requiring efficient operation in both hover and forward flight. This thesis discusses the development of a hybrid air...

A new catalyst was prepared by promoting fly ash with hydrogen peroxide. The catalytic activity of H2O2 promoted fly ash (HPFA) was evaluated by synthesis 5(4H)-oxazolone and imidazolone derivatives under solvent free conditions. The possible mechanisms of synthesis reactions were also suggested. These proposed methods benefit in terms of low-cost catalyst, high yields, ease of workup, survival...

although the indian population is largely vegetarian, not much attention has been given to the cultivation of vegetables, as compared to other crops like cereals, pulses and oil seeds. therefore, the present study was conducted on two leafy vegetables, spinach (spanacia oleracea l.) and methi (trigonella foenum graecum l.) commonly grown in aligarh, as the two popular vegetables of indian diet....
