TL;DR: The intention is to demonstrate that Augmented Reality and Additive Manufacturing are viable tools in aviation maintenance, and while a strong effort is necessary to develop an appropriate regulatory framework, mandatory before the wide-spread introduction of these technologies in the aerospace systems maintenance process, there has been a great interest and pull from the industry sector.

TL;DR: A new Wind Speed Forecasting (WSF) model, suitable for a short term 1–24h forecast horizon, is developed by adapting Hammerstein model to an Autoregressive approach, which can better capture various wind speed characteristics, including asymmetric (non-gaussian) wind speed distribution, non-stationary time series profile, and the chaotic dynamics.

TL;DR: A number of concepts involving various control methodologies, such as proportional, velocity, linear quadratic regulator, modified bang-bang, sliding mode observer, time-delay control, fuzzy, etc., as well as results obtained with such controls are presented.

TL;DR: A review of current modeling techniques for airship dynamics and aerodynamics along with conceptual design and optimization techniques, structural design and manufacturing technologies and, energy system technologies is presented in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-degree-of-freedom (DOF) piezoelectric energy harvester (PEH) with stoppers that introduce nonlinear dynamic interaction between the two DOFs was proposed.
