Book Synopsis Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences by : Wade H. Shafer
Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS)* at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dis semination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the though that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemi nation. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 37 (thesis year 1992) a total of 12,549 thesis titles from 25 Canadian and 153 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this impor tant annual reference work. While Volume 37 reports theses submitted in 1992, on occasion, certain uni versities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

This book was released on 2002-09-01 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) have a great potential use for the United States Marine Corps and United States Navy. When performing amphibious operations, underwater mines present a danger for he forces going ashore. The use of underwater vehicles for the detection of this mines and signaling to the Amphibious Ready Group is very attractive. With advancements in hardware and object oriented language technology, more complicated and robust software can be developed. The Naval Postgraduate School Center for AUV Research has been designing, building, operating, and researching AUVs since 1987. Each generation of vehicles has provided substantially increased in operational capabilities and level of sophistication in the hardware and software respectively. With the advancement in real-time computer languages support, object oriented technology, and cost efficient and high performance hardware, this thesis lays the foundations to develop a software system for the execution level using the Java language. We look into the Java Real-Time specifications and extension to familiarize with the capabilities of Java for real-time support, and study Java boards and its application for embedded real-time systems. We developed an object-oriented design for the execution level control software and implemented the design in Java. A testing phase is still under work.
Book Synopsis Mission Planning and Mission Control Software for the Phoenix Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) by : Bradley J. Leonhardt
Download or read book Mission Planning and Mission Control Software for the Phoenix Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) written by Bradley J. Leonhardt and published by . This book was released on 1996-03-01 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Naval Postgraduate School Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV), Phoenix, has a well developed lower level architecture (Execution level) while the upper, Strategic and especially the Tactical, levels need refinement. To be useful in the fleet an easier means of creating mission code for the Strategic level is required. A software architecture needed to be implemented at the Tactical level on-board Phoenix which can accommodate multi-processes, multi- languages, multiprocessors and control hard real time constraints existing at the Execution level. Phoenix also did not have a path replanning capability prior to this thesis. The approach taken is to provide Phoenix a user friendly interface for the autogeneration of human readable mission code and the creation and implementation of a Tactical level control architecture onboard Phoenix to include path replanning. The approach utilizes Rational Behavior Model (RBM) architectural design principles. This thesis focuses on the Officer of the Deck and replanning at the Tactical level, and refinement of the Captain at the Strategic level. While further testing is necessary, Phoenix is now capable of behaving as a truly autonomous vehicle. Results of this thesis show that nontechnical personnel can generate Prolog code to perform missions on-board Phoenix. Path replanning and obstacle avoidance software are also implemented. Most important this thesis demonstrates successful operation of all three levels of the RBM architecture on-board Phoenix.

Book Synopsis Advanced Model Predictive Control for Autonomous Marine Vehicles by : Yang Shi
Download or read book Advanced Model Predictive Control for Autonomous Marine Vehicles written by Yang Shi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-13 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive overview of marine control system design related to underwater robotics applications. In particular, it presents novel optimization-based model predictive control strategies to solve control problems appearing in autonomous underwater vehicle applications. These novel approaches bring unique features, such as constraint handling, prioritization between multiple design objectives, optimal control performance, and robustness against disturbances and uncertainties, into the control system design. They therefore form a more general framework to design marine control systems and can be widely applied. Advanced Model Predictive Control for Autonomous Marine Vehicles balances theoretical rigor – providing thorough analysis and developing provably-correct design conditions – and application perspectives – addressing practical system constraints and implementation issues. Starting with a fixed-point positioning problem for a single vehicle and progressing to the trajectory-tracking and path-following problem of the vehicle, and then to the coordination control of a large-scale multi-robot team, this book addresses the motion control problems, increasing their level of challenge step-by-step. At each step, related subproblems such as path planning, thrust allocation, collision avoidance, and time constraints for real-time implementation are also discussed with solutions. In each chapter of this book, compact and illustrative examples are provided to demonstrate the design and implementation procedures. As a result, this book is useful for both theoretical study and practical engineering design, and the tools provided in the book are readily applicable for real-world implementation.
