2. 1. Autonomous and Cooperative Landings Using Model Predictive Control

   Author : Linnea Persson; Bo Wahlberg; Tor Arne Johansen; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cooperative control; autonomous landings; rendezvous; UAV; drone; USV; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : Cooperation is increasingly being applied in the control of interconnected multi-agent systems, and it introduces many benefits. In particular, cooperation can improve the efficiency of many types of missions, and adds flexibility and robustness against external disturbances or unknown obstacles. READ MORE

   Abstract : Moving with a drone can be a captivating and reflective experience. A drone can easily grab my attention, yet its hold is distinctly different to a screen where my body goes missing and my eyes are held captive. Instead, my body feels alive and present. As if every part of it is playing a crucial role in keeping the drone in the air. READ MORE

6. 4. Handling demand-capacity imbalances in aerial vehicle traffic

   Author : Leonid Sedov; Tobias Andersson Granberg; Valentin Polishchuk; Joost Ellerbroek; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : It is expected that the number of drones used in both commercial and leisure operations will grow significantly in the coming years, which raises the need for a solid framework for management of this traffic. Unmanned traffic management (UTM) is a system for handling autonomous drone flights over urban areas. READ MORE

7. 5. Operational Military Violence : A Cartography of Bureaucratic Minds and Practices

   Abstract : Western use of military violence is becoming increasingly centralised, partly through the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (or more commonly referred to as “drones” in the literature). Drone technology allows control and command of military operations to be put under one roof, and as military organisations traditionally have a close dependence on technological developments, procedures and regulations for centralised command and control have developed in close concert with advances in drone technology.
