Flexible multibody system dynamics (MSD) is one of the hot spots and difficulties in modern
mechanics. It provides a powerful theoretical tool and technical support for dynamic …

Artificial intelligence is the ability of a computer to perform the functions and reasoning
typical of the human mind. In its purely informatic aspect, it includes the theory and …

The purpose of this paper was to present the key features of a novel coordinate formulation
for the analytical description of the motion of rigid multibody systems, namely the natural …

In this paper, an identification activity and a control application conducted on a Unmanned
Ground Vehicle by using low cost components and open source software are presented …

This paper deals with the development of an open-loop controller implemented in the
Arduino platform in order to reuse an existing CNC machine for performing simple …

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), are increasingly being adapted and used in civil contexts,
