Currently, the field of unmanned aerial vehicles is growing and developing rapidly. Unmanned systems are being actively integrated into everyday life. However, with the increase in the number of UAVs, the volume of software has expanded significantly, and many graphical interfaces for control have appeared. Today, various solutions are known for controlling aircraft: both using mobile phones and devices, and using personal computers and control systems. Control can be carried out both for one UAV and for their groups and swarms, and in some cases for heterogeneous groups of robots, where UAVs

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, have emerged as versatile platforms with applications ranging from military reconnaissance to civilian surveillance and delivery services. As UAV technology continues to advance, there is a growing emphasis on autonomy, enabling UAVs to operate independently or semi-autonomously in complex environments. However, modeling autonomy requirements for UAVs presents significant challenges due to the multifaceted nature of autonomy and the diverse operational contexts in which UAVs are deployed.

In recent years, land–air collaborative logistics delivery is a promising distribution method. It combines the flexibility of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with the high payload capacity of vehicles, expanding the service range of UAVs while reducing carbon emissions. However, most existing research has focused on path planning and resource allocation for either UAVs or vehicles alone. Therefore, to address the shortcomings of the current research, this paper proposes an intelligent land–air collaboration delivery algorithm for trajectory optimization and resource scheduling.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are a technology that allows a ground operator to pilot a small aircraft remotely, with minimal training. UAVs are utilised for commercial, recreational, military, and academic uses. Many industries are adopting UAVs to assist with tasks that would place humans in danger or otherwise not be possible. The customisability of UAVs leaves room for flexibility in their operation and use, being able to be retrofitted with other technology to specialise their use; for instance, thermal imaging cameras, weight distribution apparatus to support heavier payloads, and chem

Abstract:

The present PhD thesis addresses the problem of the control of small fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). In the scientific community much research is dedicated to the study of suitable control laws for this category of aircraft. This interest is motivated by the several applications that these platforms can perform and by their peculiarities as dynamical systems. In fact, small UAVs are characterized by highly nonlinear behavior, strong coupling between longitudinal and latero-directional planes, and high sensitivity to external disturbances and to parametric uncertainties.

Inflatable-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have the ability to be packed in a fraction of their deployed volume. This makes them ideal for many deployable UAV designs, but inflatable wings can be flexible and don’t have conventional control surfaces. This thesis will investigate the use of wing warping as a means of autonomous control for inflatable wings. Due to complexities associated with manufacturing inflatable structures a new method of rapid prototyping deformable wings is used in place of inflatables to decrease cost and design-cycle time.

General aircraft dynamic stability theory was used to predict the natural frequencies, damping ratios and time constants of the dynamic modes for three specific small UAVs with wingspans on the scale from 0.6 meters to 1.2 meters. Using USAF DatCom methods, a spreadsheet program for predicting the dynamic stability and handling qualities of small UAVs was created for use in the design stage of new small UAV concept development. This program was verified by inputting data for a Cessna-182, and by then comparing the program output with that of a similar program developed by DAR Corporation. Pred

Abstract:

With recent advancements in the field of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM), including Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL), Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS), and Unmanned Aerial System (UAS), it is beneficial to understand the impact of complex flow features on operations in urban and shipboard environments. Testing methods for studying these impacts, including simulated environments such as wind-tunnel flows and engineered equivalence tests, will need to be adapted to prepare for when the vehicles of interest are too large for the available testing facilities, and to permit low-cos

Abstract:

Vehicle mobility in cold and challenging terrains is of interest to both the US and Chilean Armies. Mobility in winter conditions is highly vehicle dependent with autonomous vehicles experiencing additional challenges over manned vehicles. They lack the ability to make informed decisions based on what they are “seeing” and instead need to rely on input from sensors on the vehicle, or from Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) or satellite data collections. This work focuses on onboard vehicle Controller Area Network (CAN) Bus sensors, driver input sensors, and some externally mounted sensors to assist

Abstract:

This feasibility study report outlines the research findings and recommendations for implementing the use of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) for route surveying. The study was conducted with the support of IP Fokus Sdn. Bhd. research grant to determine the feasibility of UAS as an alternative solution for the route surveying process. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the potential of UAS in improving the efficiency and accuracy of route surveying tasks. To achieve this objective, we conducted a comprehensive literature review on the current practices and technologies used in rou

Abstract:

Armed unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)—often referred to as drones—have become a prominent and sometimes controversial means of delivering lethal force in the 21st century. Yet the international community is some way from reaching consensus on how established international principles are to be interpreted and applied to the use of armed UAVs. This situation is unsatisfactory for promoting civilian protection in conflict, the maintenance of peace and security, or the rule of law. Moreover, UAVs have unique characteristics that make them particularly susceptible to misuse in comparison to other t

Abstract:

Armed unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are rapidly spreading, raising new questions about the effectiveness of existing mechanisms to track or control their transfer and heightening concerns that the features that make them attractive to militaries may also make them susceptible to misuse. This paper identifies trends in the expanding development, transfer and use of armed of UAVs to support States to consider whether there is a need for common standards or international understandings to be developed, with a view to ensuring appropriate levels of transparency, oversight and accountability for

Abstract:

This paper presents a systematic analysis and design framework for a spectrum of last-mile delivery systems that leverage unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Four distinct modes are considered: (1) direct drone deliveries from a fixed depot; (2) drone deliveries from parked trucks that carry bulk parcels to customer neighborhoods; (3) drone deliveries from nonstopping trucks that tour customer neighborhoods; and (4) as a benchmark, traditional truck-based home deliveries. We present a new continuum-approximation approach that is used for analysis of both truck routing and aerial-UAV traffic. We c
