Underactuated point stabilization using predictive models with application to marine vehicles
— Point stabilization of an underactuated vehicle is most often accomplished using a periodic time-varying control law, resulting in oscillatory trajectories. We present a two-st...

Underactuated control and distribution of multi-agent systems in stratified flow environments
The present paper shows how vertical actuation alone may be used to effectively control the spatial distribution of mobile vehicles ("balloons" in air, or "drifters&...

Visual servoing of an under-actuated dynamic rigid-body system: an image-based approach
Abstract--A new image-based control strategy for visual servoing of a class of under-actuated rigid body systems is presented. The proposed control design applies to "eye-in-h...
