Rezunenko, E.M. (author)This paper presents an experimental validation of a recently developed two-point human controller (HC) model for preview tracking tasks. During a human-in-the-loop experiment, subjects tracked identical target signals with zero preview, 1.5 seconds of preview, and two occlusion conditions, blocking either the 0-0.5 s, or 0.35-0.85 s region from...master thesis 2016

Meulenberg, M.J.A. (author)Due to increasing congestion there is a need for improved traffic control measures. During the Field Operational Test Integrated Management Amsterdam (Praktijkproef Amsterdam (PPA)) several control measures have been tested. One of them is ramp metering. The ramp metering algorithm, ALINEA, has been used with the "Parameterschatter" (Parameter...master thesis 2016

Van Gils, P. (author)This thesis deals with the development of Adaptive Incremental Backstepping control laws for a high-performance aircraft model (F-16), in order to make the airplane robustly seek references in roll rate and angle of attack at a constant airspeed while minimizing sideslip. An Incremental Backstepping scheme that relies on estimates of the angular...master thesis 2015

Smit, B. (author)A new type of polymeric artificial muscle was recently discovered. This muscle is based on twisted and coiled polymer fiber and is actuated thermally. It has interesting properties, such as low costs and high work densities. Based on fabrication methods, two variations can be considered. The autocoiled variation has a larger load capacity and...master thesis 2016

Kemmeren, Max (author)As the application areas of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) keep expanding, new flight areas are encountered more often. Small UAVs, named Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs), even fly in areas like sewage pipes. These areas introduce new difficulties such as aerodynamic effects caused by the ground and/or ceiling. In this paper two main contributions are...master thesis 2021

Vertregt, Casper (author)This research applied a Dual Extended Kalman Filter (DEKF) to time-varying human operator (HO) parameter estimation in preview tracking tasks. The preview time parameter was of particular interest, as the amount of preview can be highly variable in practical situations. The filter was centered around a linear cybernetic HO model with six...master thesis 2020
