Design of singularity-free fixed-time fault-tolerant control for HFVs with guaranteed asymmetric time-varying flight state constraints

This article solves the fixed-time trajectory tracking problem for hypersonic flight vehicles (HFVs) encountered with diverse actuator faults and asymmetric envelope constraints. In contrast to the state of the art, the crucial characteristics of our design lie in obviating the explosion of complexity of the conventional recursive design, and...

Relational model of accidents and vessel traffic using AIS Data and GIS: A case study of the Western port of Shenzhen City

Following the growth in global trade activities, vessel traffic has increased dramatically in some busy waterways and ports. However, such increments have made it more complex to manage the regional vessel traffic, which can increase the risk of an accident in the area. To model and analyze the relationship between vessel traffic and maritime...
