The performance of a glider can be considerably improved by means of soaring and optimization of its trajectory. Recent advances in the area of static soaring assume known linear glider dynamics and no actuator saturation phenomena. In practice, the

In automatic vehicle steering applications the demand is towards developing more efficient and robust lane detection and tracking algorithms for safe lane keeping, merging and changing. The relevant control strategies, however, have to deal with dela

Cruise controllers are used to automatically control the speed of motor vehicles. In order to maintain a desired vehicle speed the controller takes over the throttle in a cruise control system which proves particularly useful for long drives. Adaptiv

The flight performance of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has recently been attempted to be optimized in various static soaring applications. The optimal flight paths can be generated for specific scenarios where the climb rates of the rising air cur
