This paper tackles maneuverability analysis of a fully-actuated hexrotor unmanned aerial
vehicle considering arrangement and tilt angles of 6 rotors. First, a dynamical model of the …

Despite the neuromechanical complexity underlying animal locomotion, the steady-state
center-of-mass motions and ground reaction forces of animal running can be predicted by …

Standard multirotor designs typically arrange their propellers in the same plane, which
results in an under-actuated system whose pose cannot track an arbitrary trajectory over …

purposes of many VTOL UAVs are needed but there has been hardly new non-control …

This paper presents a kind of taxonomy to classify and understand the acceleration
characteristics of fully-actuated hexrotor unmanned aerial vehicles. First, two special classes …

Due to innovation in machine automation and artificial intelligence (AI), surveillance and
security paradigms are changing. The unmanned aerial vehicles are designed for …

The current crop of outdoor-focused quadrotors struggle to explore tight, GPS denied, and
vision impaired environments while managing self-induced turbulence and keeping the …

Several works have addressed the issue of obtaining a six degree of freedom (6DOF)
capable multirotor. However, the capability of keeping full control in the case of a total failure …

This paper presents a novel approach to Thrust Vector Control (TVC) for small Unmanned
Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The difficulties associated with conventional feed-forward TVC are …

This document introduces the holonomic flying capabilities of the Hexapodopter, a six-
legged walking machine capable of vertical take-off and landing. For ground locomotion …
