In this paper, a 3D mathematical model of a helicopter attached to a robotic landing gear is proposed to investigate into helicopter landing on uneven terrain. The landing gear consists of four articulated legs connected to the helicopter fuselage. E...

Control of rotorcraft landing gear on different ground conditions (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Goh, K., Boix, D. M., McWhinnie, J., & Smith, G. (2016, August). Control of rotorcraft landing gear on different ground conditions. Presented at 2016 IEEE International Conference on Mechatronics and Automation, Harbin, China

This paper presents an example of a PID controller applied to a 2-dimensional rotorcraft landing gear with two DOF (degrees of freedom), as well as the design of the landing gear dynamic model. The focus of this work is to maintain the landing spot t... Read More about Control of rotorcraft landing gear on different ground conditions.

Automatic Position and Orientation Correction for Automated Assembly Robots (1993)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Rea, H. J., Raeside, R., & Lewis, J. (1993, March). Automatic Position and Orientation Correction for Automated Assembly Robots. Presented at Thirtieth International MATADOR Conference, Manchester, UK

For assembly purposes, robot accuracy is critical only in small well-defined volumes, such as immediately over a pallet or work table where pieces are being lifted and assembled. Since the volumes are small it is possible to consider the robot system... Read More about Automatic Position and Orientation Correction for Automated Assembly Robots.
