Model Reference Adaptive Stabilizing Control with Application to Leaderless Consensus

This article describes an extension of the well-known model reference adaptive control (MRAC) approach. The extension relies on explicitly involving the tracking error in the feedback control law: it is shown that including this term along with its appropriate extra adaptive gain allows one to handle possibly unstable reference dynamics....

Fuzzy Adaptive Zero-Error-Constrained Tracking Control for HFVs in the Presence of Multiple Unknown Control Directions

This article attempts to realize zero-error constrained tracking for hypersonic flight vehicles (HFVs) subject to unknown control directions and asymmetric flight state constraints. The main challenges of reaching such goals consist in that addressing multiple unknown control directions requires novel conditional inequalities encompassing the...

Towards an Ontology for Scenario Definition for the Assessment of Automated Vehicles: An Object-Oriented Framework

The development of new assessment methods for the performance of automated vehicles is essential to enable the deployment of automated driving technologies, due to the complex operational domain of automated vehicles. One contributing method is scenario-based assessment in which test cases are derived from real-world road traffic scenarios...
