(2020-05-19)Autonomous navigation capabilities for spacecraft are useful for decreasing operational costs, increasing the scope of missions, and increasing the robustness of spacecraft. This dissertation aims to present and fully ...
-
(2011-10-21)In this dissertation, we focus on development of algorithms for estimating the severity of air leakage and for predicting the out-of-adjustment of pushrod in an air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles. The leakage ...
-
(2013-12-05)Locating the position of a radio frequency device is indispensable in many wireless applications. The most famous method is the Global Positioning System (GPS), which uses trilateration with satellites, is ...
-
(2019-06-28)Networked embedded systems are valuable tools for guidance and navigation, with applications ranging from UAV swarms to self-driving cars. LASR Lab is working on projects that require networked embedded systems running ...
-
(2017-03-24)Due to the fundamental role of asymmetric information in economic relations, during the past decades contracts have flourished and dedicated to how the information asymmetry and incentives induce strategic behavior among ...
-
(2012-10-19)The estimation approaches examined in this dissertation focus on manipulating system dynamical models to allow the well-known form of the continuous-discrete extended Kalman filter (CDEKF) to accommodate constrained and ...
-
(2013-04-09)Real-time estimates of weight and mass center location for helicopters are desirable for flight control and condition-based maintenance purposes. While methods to estimate mass parameters of helicopters have been developed, ...
-
(2012-11-28)The internship company does not have a standard procedure for preparing an engineer’s estimate of probable construction cost document (engineer’s estimate) for municipal projects. Every project manager employs a methodology ...
-
Multiple Hypothesis Tracking Filter with Lambert Post Filtering for Multiple Space Object Tracking (2019-04-25)The data association problem occurs when there is uncertainty and ambiguity in assessing the origin of measurements especially when the measurements are being made from multiple locations at multiple times. For example, ...
-
(2023-08-15)Optical navigation has recently become increasingly popular as a method of guidance, navigation and control due to its unique advantages over other navigation systems. As a non-contact and non-destructive system, optical ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The parameter estimation problem or the inverse problem of ordinary differential equations is prevalent in many process models in chemistry, molecular biology, control system design and many other engineering applications. ...
-
(2010-10-12)The angular resolution of an imaging system is sharply bounded by the diffraction limit, a fundamental property of electromagnetic radiation propagation. In order to increase resolution and see finer details of remote ...
-
(2017-04-05)In the first essay, we investigate the nonlinear quantile regression with mixed discrete and continuous regressors. A local linear smoothing technique with the mixed continuous and discrete kernel function is proposed to ...
-
(2022-07-07)This dissertation provides theoretical findings and empirical results that contribute to the area of structural auction models. The first chapter studies entry behaviors in procurement auctions with incomplete contracts ...
-
Estimation of wireless device location (localization) has been studied extensively for its usefulness in network infrastructures. However, the related issue of determining device orientation has received less attention. ...
