(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Computer aided design has allowed many design decisions to be made before hardware is built through "virtual" prototypes: computer simulations of an engineering design. To produce robust systems noise factors must also be ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)A pseudospectral method for solving nonlinear optimal control problems is proposed in this thesis. The method is a direct transcription that transcribes the continuous optimal control problem into a discrete nonlinear ...

(Cambridge, Mass. : Dept. of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Flight Transportation Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1976, 1976)Introduction: Omega navigation has great potential as a navigation sensor for general aviation aircraft. Advantages of Omega navigation include signal availability at all altitudes, and no need for overflying of various ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)This dissertation considers a suite of search problems in which agents are trying to find goals in minimum expected time. Unlike search in data structures in which time is measured by a number operations, search in metric ...

Geosynchronous satellite maneuver detection and orbit recovery using ground based optical tracking (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Geosynchronous satellite orbit maintenance is a very important issue. Satellites maneuver frequently requiring the ability to detect unknown maneuvers for target satellites and quickly recover an accurate orbit. This study ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)In the recent few years, there has been an observed trend of US legacy carriers putting more emphasis on international traffic than domestic, i.e. expanding international capacity while decreasing their domestic capacity. ...
