Trajectory tracking controller design and simulation of a tethered aircraft Onen, Anil Sami; Tekinalp, Ozan (2025-11-11) This study addresses the control problem of an airborne wind energy aircraft, generating power on the ground. The proposed control tracks a pre-defined trajectory in the power generation phase. The reference attitude infor...
Implementing Quaternion-Based Nonlinear Control for Quadrotors in PX-4 Autopilot Framework Yücel, Utku; Tekinalp, Ozan (2025-07-04) This study presents two workflows for integrating a previously developed Quaternion-Based Nonlinear Controller and a Linear Quadratic Tracking Velocity Controller (QNC-LQT) into the PX4 autopilot framework: (1) using the ...
Visual Navigation for Lunar Missions Using Sequential Triangulation Technique Muratoğlu, Abdurrahim; Söken, Halil Ersin; Tekinalp, Ozan (2025-03-01) A vision-aided autonomous navigation system for translunar missions based on celestial triangulation (Earth and Moon) is proposed. Line-of-Sight (LoS) vectors from the spacecraft to celestial bodies, retrieved using epheme...
A Robust Nonlinear MPC and Incremental Dynamic Inversion Control Framework for Quadrotors Under Rotor Failure Elif, Cihangir Mehmetcik; Tekinalp, Ozan (2025-01-01) Quadrotors are becoming more prevalent for inspection, delivery, and industrial tasks, but their underactuated design makes them susceptible to actuator faults. Faults can range from reduced rotor effectiveness to complete...

System Identification of E-VTOL Rotor in Vortex Ring State by Viscous Vortex Particle Method Şenipek, Murat; Okçu, Ilgaz Doğa; Tekinalp, Ozan; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal (2023-09-07) This paper presents a methodology that identifies a state-space rotor inflow model for a 1.5-m radius two bladed eVTOL rotor in descent. Main purpose of the work is to identify a state-space model for an isolated rotor for...
Development and Validation of a Fast Mid-Fidelity Comprehensive Analysis Tool for Generic E-VTOL Configurations Şenipek, Murat; Güngör, Osman; Tekinalp, Ozan (2022-09-08)
Orbit Control of an Earth Orbiting Solar Sail Satellite Polat, Halis Can; Tekinalp, Ozan (2022-09-01) A concept for the utilization of solar sail satellite's propellant-free thrust capability at Low earth orbit (LEO) is proposed and its orbit control strategy is analyzed. Thrust vector control of the sail's normal directio...
