Nonlinear control of Tethered Airfoils: Path-following control of Tethered Airfoils

摘要

This master thesis contains modeling, analysis and control design for atethered airfoil. A path-following controller has been developed and provenlocally asymptotically stable. The guidance law is general, and applicableto other path-following systems. The closed loop system is demonstratedin simulations, where a certain level of robustness is concluded.
