This paper presents the results of a model-based predictive control (MPC) design for a quadrotor aerial vehicle with a suspended load. Unlike previous works, the controller takes into account the hanging payload dynamics, the dynamics in three-dimensional space, and the vehicle rotation, achieving a good balance between fast stabilization times and small swing angles. The mathematical model is based on the Euler–Lagrange formulation and considers the dynamics of the vehicle, the cable, and the load. Then, the mathematical model is represented as an input-affine system to obtain the linear model for the control design. A constrained MPC strategy was designed and compared with an unconstrained MPC and an algorithm from the literature for the case of study. The constraints to be considered include the limits on the swing angles and the quadrotor position. The constrained control algorithm was constructed to stabilize the aerial vehicle. It aims to track a trajectory reference while attenuating the load swing, considering a maximum swing range of ±10∘. Numerical simulations were carried out to validate the control strategy.

In this paper, an easily implementable coaxial quadrotor model and its validation on data from a real unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), are presented. The proposed mathematical model consists of two parts: description of orientation and position of the UAV in the three-dimensional space. It takes into consideration the gyroscopic effect, influence of the Coriolis force, viscous friction and a several drag-like effects (blade flapping, rotor drag, translational drag and profile drag). In contrast to multirotor models available in the literature, this one is characterized by complementarity in relation to the available control techniques. Depending on selection of these techniques, the model can be narrowed (simplified) to meet the needs without the loss of behaviour adequacy to a real UAV.

Robot is now can used to cut the opening pore of Pressure Vessel and the end of pipe. It is important to solve the problem of robotic cutting trajectory planning for cutting of the three-dimensional curved surface and the intersected curve with groove at the end of pipe. According to the analytical geometry in the three-dimensional space, the mathematical model of intersected curve with groove is presented. Trajectory planning and cutting torch stance is fixed through the feature extraction and kinematics calculation. Using the L-positioner, the problem of robot limiting in cutting process is resolved. As a post operator, a program is developed to automatically generate corresponding robot program to match to the program language format of Kuka and Reis robot. The robot cutting trajectory supported by the above algorithms and program is tested in solidworks.

This article discusses the development of a mathematical model for a device capable of tracking the movements of a human limb based on the readings of microelectromechanical sensors. For developing and selecting the most suitable model, experiments were conducted based on publicly available components. The result obtained is of practical importance since it can be used to create a device.

In the context of investigating methods dedicated to identifying unknown parameters of the system described by partial differential equations, particularly in the field of heat transfer, it has been realized that the heat transfer process in particular three-dimensional features is really complex and takes longer to calculate. Therefore, an equivalent mathematical model which is simpler proposed to reduce the calculation time and the costs of experimental activities. We observe that the mathematical models of the diffusion equation can be minimized in three-dimensional space into a similar two-dimensional pattern within certain limits did not change the physical properties of heat transfer process. A mathematical model and the numerical results of simulation experiments in order to prove effectiveness the proposed method will be presented in detail in this article.

The three-phase four-leg converter can be obtained by adding a bridge into the traditional three-phase three-leg converter. The average mathematical model of three-phase four-leg converter is described in this paper. The three-dimensional space vector PWM (3D-SVPWM) is analyzed. For simplifying the modulation, a fast digital SVPWM algorithm which eliminates coordinate transformation and saves calculating time was proposed. The feasibility of the proposed modulation technique is verified by computer simulation. These results show that the proposed fast digital 3D-SVPWM technique can be easily implemented without conventional computational burden.

Lanping Pb-Zn mine is the biggest Pb-Zn mine of China. It is necessary for the mine to digital. On the basis of systematic analysis of and research on Jiayashan ore block in Lanping pb-zn mine, Mine Mathematical Model software, Surpac software and Micrmine software from abroad for digitization ware used to study this deposit. Finally, a three-dimensional space deposit model was established. As a result, the dynamic management of mine has been realized, the degree of automation and systematize have been increased for mining production, the scientific help have been presented for making use of resources sufficiently and reasonably.
