Investigation into the control strategy for a long spine of Edinburgh Duck modules, using an efficient numerical model

An efficient numerical model of a spine of ten Edinburgh duck modules is developed. The spine joints and duck modules are modelled using a linear approach based on the theory of generalized modes, which mitigates the need for a more computationally expensive time- domain solver. This approach also...
