Integration of Virtual Vibration Absorbers in UAV Motion Control Design for Monitoring Civil Structures in Dam Engineering

This paper explores the innovative use of virtual vibration absorbers in the motion control systems of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) specifically for civil structure monitoring in dam engineering. By integrating virtual vibration absorbers, UAVs can achieve greater stability and accuracy in data col-lection, leading to more precise monitoring of infrastructure health in disturbed scenarios. The research explores the design, implementation, and performance evaluation of these systems, highlighting their potential for enhancing UAV efficiency and reliability in civil engineering applications. Numerical simulations are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. The principal findings and conclusions of the research are also presented.
