Accurate Parameter Identification of UAV by Geometric-Based, CAD Design, and Pendulum Experiment-Based Methods

In control of dynamical system, too high uncertainty of system parameters may cause fault of controller design which leads to instability. To avoid such undesired case, identification of good ap-proximation of dynamical model and its parameters is very important. In this paper, we propose methods for obtaining accurate value of each parameter for Unmanned Aerial…

Communication Back-up for Natural Disaster by Emergency Amateur Radio Operator and Implemented using APRS as Location Tracker

A natural disaster is happening every year in the world. Countries like Japan, Indonesia, and the Philippines are often effected by unexpected climate change. Unexpected natural disasters destroy the landline, internet connection, and mobile communication systems infrastructure surrounding the disaster areas. In this research, the communication backup is proposed for Amateur grounding operators during unexpected…

Review on Mixing Proportion of Design of High-Performance Concrete Exceeding 80 MPa

This paper presents the mixing proportion of high-performance concrete (HPC) having compressive strength over 80 MPa. This type of concrete comprises of almost con-stituents with fine particles and often having additional steel fibers in the mixture of HPC. The HPC showed excellent properties such as high compressive strength, high stiffness, improved toughness and durability compared…

Experimental Investigation OF Reinforced Concrete Beams with Pre-Organized Cracks under Long-term Loading

The paper presents the results of reinforced concrete beam tests in crack resistance, deformability under long-term loading. The study allowed evaluation stiffness and cracks resistance of reinforced concrete beam using pre-organized cracks and conventional reinforced concrete beam under long-term loading. The results of deflection of rein-forced concrete beams with pre-organized cracks under the action long-term…

Modelling of Blast Resistance of Composite RC Elements with UHPC

Composite reinforced concrete (RC) elements with ultra-high performance con-crete (UHPC) subjected to blast loading was conducted through numerical modelling. The interfacial bond characteristics were also considered into the model. The blast model was validated using test results in available literature. Behavior of the UHPC layer attached onto RC elements was numerically observed. Simulation results showed…
