TL;DR: The structure of the graphs with the smallest average distance and the largest average clustering given their order and size is described, and a method to make these networks more robust with respect to vertex removal is devised.

TL;DR: In this paper, the fundamental design and modeling of the Caltech ducted fan is considered, which is a scaled model of the longitudinal axis of a flight vehicle and used for the research and development of new nonlinear flight guidance and control techniques for uninhabited combat aerial vehicles.

TL;DR: The paper presents a formulation of the trajectory generation task as an optimal control problem, where temporal constraints allow periods of high observability interspersed with periods of low observability, and shows that the success of nonlinear trajectory generation on the proposed low-observable trajectory generation problem depends upon an accurate parameterization of the guidance data.

TL;DR: This work proposes a novel approach to the estimation of discrete variables using lattice theory that overcomes some of the severe complexity issues encountered in previous work.

TL;DR: A simple theoretical model of a microswimmer near a wall is considered, its dynamics are studied, and a relation between the reversing symmetry of the system and existence and stability of periodic and steady solutions of motion near the wall is established.
