Radiation-Ablation Coupling for Capsule Reentry Heating via Simulation and Expansion Tube Investigations

Pénélope Leyland, Umar Sheikh, Daniel Potter, Ojas Joshi, Nikhil Banerji, Jérémy Raphaël Mora-Monteros, Valentin Marguet, Elise Joy Fahy

A capsule entering a planetary atmosphere at hypersonic speeds experiences high levels of radiative heating. Furthermore, coupling between the ablation products from the surface of the vehicle and the high temperature gas can have a major effect on the hea ...

Cooperative guidance of UAVs for area exploration with final target allocation

Tomasz Tadeusz Gorecki

Fulfillment of complex missions, such as zone watching or multiple target tracking by an UAV can prove very demanding in terms of vehicle ability. A potential way of lessening these demands consists in splitting the initial task into several complementary ...

Trajectory-tracking and Path-following Controllers for Constrained Underactuated Vehicles using Model Predictive Control

Colin Neil Jones, Andrea Alessandretti

This paper addresses the design of Model Predictive Control (MPC) laws to solve the trajectory-tracking problem and the path-following problem for constrained under-actuated vehicles. By allowing an arbitrarily small asymptotic tracking error, we derive MP ...

Distributed Synthesis and Control of Constrained Linear Systems

Colin Neil Jones, Melanie Nicole Zeilinger

This work presents an approach for both distributed synthesis and control for a network of discrete-time constrained linear systems without central coordinator. Every system in the network is dynamically coupled to a number of neighboring systems and it is ...

Radiological assessment of the Tungsten Powder Test (HRM10) at HiRadMat

Nikolaos Charitonidis

Granular solid targets made of fluidised tungsten powder have been long proposed and are being studied as an alternative configuration towards high-power (>1MW beam power) target systems, suitable for a future Super Beam facility or Neutrino Factory. A fea ...

On the Adaptation of Building Controls to the Envelope and the Occupants

David Daum

The sun is the biggest known source of energy in our solar system. We feel its strength when it gets hot during the the day and we notice its absence during the night when we feel cold. So as to be less dependent on the sun as an energy source, we implemen ...

Feedback control of the sawtooth period through real time control of the ion cyclotron resonance frequency

Jonathan Graves

Modification of the sawtooth period through ion cyclotron resonance frequency (ICRF) heating and current drive has been demonstrated in a number of experiments. The effect has been seen to depend critically on the location of the ICRF absorption region wit ...
