A Sparse Polytopic LPV Controller for Fully-Distributed Nonlinear Optimal Control
Sara Spedicato, Sarnavi Mahesh, Giuseppe Notarstefano
In this paper we deal with distributed optimal control for nonlinear dynamical systems over graph, that is large-scale systems in which the dynamics of each subsystem depends on ne…
Minimum-time trajectory generation for quadrotors in constrained environments
Sara Spedicato, Giuseppe Notarstefano
In this paper, we present a novel strategy to compute minimum-time trajectories for quadrotors in constrained environments. In particular, we consider the motion in a given flying…
An optimal control approach to the design of periodic orbits for mechanical systems with impacts
Sara Spedicato, Giuseppe Notarstefano
In this paper we study the problem of designing periodic orbits for a special class of hybrid systems, namely mechanical systems with underactuated continuous dynamics and impulse…
Computing minimum-time trajectories for quadrotors via transverse coordinates
Sara Spedicato, Giuseppe Notarstefano
In this paper we present a novel strategy to compute minimum-time trajectories for quadrotors. In particular, we consider the motion in constrained environments, taking into accoun…
