Motivation – The Arduino IDE can only be used to monitor a single port. Arduino IDE does not allow multiple serial ports to be monitored simultaneously. Serial library can be used to read, write and print to different serial ports. Therefore, different ports can be monitored simultaneously from the...
To calculate the volume of helium required for neutral buoyancy based on the mass of components and blimp. Assumptions – Temperature is constant. The gas is purely helium The density of surrounding air is constant Atmospheric pressure is constant Derivations Using the equation - ...
Simulink Model I worked on the Coriolis force module in the Simulink model. I wrote the MATLAB function that calculates the Coriolis matrix. With the completion of this module, the dynamic model is now complete. The next target is to complete the aerodynamic model. However, the equations we have...
Weekly Update - As part of the FORAY team, I worked on building a mathematical model of the blimp on Simulink. I familiarized myself with dynamic equations of the motion of the blimp. Modeling - Tutorial I used to learn the fundamentals of Simulink – http://ctms.engin.umich.edu/CTMS/index.php?e...
