Target tracking strategies for a nonlinear, flexible aircraft-inspired model

Chakravarthy, Animesh; Evans, Katie A.; Evers, Johnny; Kuhn, Lisa M. (IEEE, 2011-06-29)

Aeroelastic wing micro aerial vehicle (MAV) concepts are being explored for military and civilian applications. However, on the whole, the issues of control of MAVs are largely unexplored. The authors seek to employ ...
Time-varying dynamics of a micro air vehicle with variable-sweep morphing

Chakravarthy, Animesh; Grant, Daniel T.; Lind, Rick (The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2012-05)

In this paper, the longitudinal dynamics of a fast-morphing, variable-wing-sweep micro air vehicle are investigated from a flight dynamics perspective. The time scales over which the morphing occurs are of the same order ...
