Real-Time Trajectory Optimization for Noise Abatement of Helicopter Landings

Real-Time Trajectory Optimization and Air Traffic Control Simulation for Noise Abatement Approach Procedures

Aircraft noise is a major obstacle to the growth of aviation. This thesis presents an adaptive onboard real-time optimization algorithm and an Air Traffic Control simulation model that can minimize the aircraft approach noise and meet air traffic control targets and restrictions. The adaptive real-time optimization algorithm uses dynamic programming, nonlinear optimization, and receding horizon...

Optimization of Departure Trajectory for Noise Abatement of Sensitive Locations

Adopting the noise abatement procedures(NAPs) is the common approach for abating the noise around airport for the international civil aviation. But there is only one or two procedures used in China. This paper first gives a preliminary model of optimizing the departure trajectory, which is one of the most important in the NAPs. Then it proposes two approaches with two algorithms respectively, t...

Trajectory Optimization and Real-time Simulation for Robotics Applications

Abstract. This paper illustrates the use of the general-purpose multibody free software MBDyn for trajectory optimization in space robotics. Trajectory optimization requires the capability to explore the space of the feasible solutions which implies simultaneously satisfying the dynamics equations of the system and equality and inequality constraints. A well-known and widely adopted technique i...
