In today’s world, the number and the usage area of the drones are getting increased rapidly from day to day. On the other hand, despite the fact that air vehicles will probablyshapethefuture,thegroundvehiclesalsowillstayessentialatleastasmuch astoday. Inthisstudy,thesetwoseparatedsystems;thedroneandthe8x8landvehicle are considered to work together to solve a problem; personnel comfort for the drastic terrain conditions. A simulation , which includes a quadrotor, which is carrying a laser system for road scanning and a 8x8 full car model with an active suspension system,iscreated. Thestudystartswiththemodelingandsimulationofthequadrotor and then continues with the modeling and simulation of the 8x8 vehicle model. For eachmodel,developingtherelatedcontroltheoriesarethethirdstepandthefinalstep is integration of the models in a simulation world and generation of the scenarios in order to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of co-working drone and vehicle system. The8x8vehicleisconsideredtousetheroaddistributioninformation,which comes from the drone that is flying in front of the vehicle and commanded by the vehicle. On the other hand, the active suspension of the vehicle is optimized by the information provided by the drone.

Drone-vs-Bird detection challenge at IEEE AVSS2017
Coluccia, Angelo; Ghenescu, Marian; Piatrik, Tomas; De Cubber, Geert; Schumann, Arne; Sommer, Lars; Klatte, Johannes; Schuchert, Tobias; Beyerer, Juergen; Farhadi, Mohammad; Amandi, Ruhallah; Aker, Cemal; Kalkan, Sinan; Saqib, Muhammad; Sharma, Nabin; Makkah, Sultan Daud Khan; Blumenstein, Michael (2017-09-01)
Small drones are a rising threat due to their possible misuse for illegal activities, in particular smuggling and terrorism. The project SafeShore, funded by the European Commission under the Horizon 2020 program, has launched the “drone-vs-bird detection challenge” to address one of the many technical issues arising in this context. The goal is to detect a drone appearing at some point in a video where birds may be also present: the algorithm should raise an alarm and provide a position estimate only when ...
Numerical and experimental analysis of a piezoelectric flat plate in flapping motion
Harputlu, Özgür; Kurtuluş, Dilek Funda; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2014)
The technology of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) has a rapid improvement and their use is increasing day by day for military and civilian missions. Developments in production technology enable the fabrication of micro aerial vehicles. Flapping wing systems have an important place among UAVs. These vehicles are superior to fixed wing aircrafts with their high maneuverability and hover capabilities and they can successfully perform many missions in which the fixed aircrafts are insufficient. Developments in m...
Mission planning for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) teams
Yılgın, Serdar; Polat, Faruk; Department of Computer Engineering (2014)
In recent years, use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) especially for reconnaissance and combat missions has become very popular in worldwide. There is no onboard human operator exists for UAVs and they are generally controlled by remote human operators. Depending on the operational environment; sometimes it becomes nearly impossible to provide optimal or an acceptable UAV – target assignment and scheduling, satisfying the constraints required to accomplish the mission, for the operators in control center. I...
Task assignment and scheduling in UAV mission planning with multiple constraints
Semiz, Fatih; Polat, Faruk; Department of Computer Engineering (2015)
In the recent years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have started to be utilized as the first choice for high risk and long duration tasks, because UAVs are cheaper; they are hard to be noticed and they can perform long duration missions. Furthermore, the utilization of UAVs ensures to reduce the risk to the human life. Examples of this kind of missions includes signal collection, surveillance and reconnaissance and combat support missions. It is valuable to develop a fully autonomous UAV fleet to perform t...
Autopilot design for a quadrotor /
Büyüksarıkulak, Mehmet Sami; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014)
Nowadays, UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Systems) are important study areas for military and academic world. These systems can play crucial roles in some applications, especially in hazardous environments due to the fact that no human pilot will undergo danger. Quadrotor is an underactuated UAV system which has four fixed rotors and four degrees of freedom. Roll, pitch and yaw rotations and elevation/declination can be changed by differences of propeller velocity of rotors with respect to each other. Horizontal moti...
