Response of grooved composites to transversely distributed and localized spherical contact loadings (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)The response of a grooved composite specimen to two contact loading situations is studied; load applied via a transversely oriented cylindrical indenter and via a localized spherical ball-ended indenter. The philosophy of ...

-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Advances in autonomy, in the fields of control, estimation, and diagnosis, have improved immensely, as seen by spacecraft that navigate toward pinpoint landings, or speech recognition enabled in hand-held devices. Arguably ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This thesis presents an improved sampling-based motion planning algorithm, Robust RRT, that is designed specifically for large robotic vehicles and uncertain, dynamic environments. Five main extensions have been made to ...
