The Navigation Equations: Computing Position North, East, and Down
In this video we show how to compute the inertial velocity of a rigid body in the vehicle-carried North, East, Down (NED) frame. This is achieved by rotating the velocity expressed in the...

Here we explore the sensitivity and complementary sensitivity functions, which are critical in understanding robustness and performance.
See MoreData-Driven Control: The Goal of Balanced Model Reduction
In this lecture, we discuss the overarching goal of balanced model reduction: Identifying key states that are most jointly controllable and observable, to capture the most input—output...
See MoreBode Plots of Complex Transfer Functions
In this video we discuss how to generate a bode plot of a complex transfer function by decomposing it into the individual components. We then show how one c...
See MoreDerivation of Rodrigues’ Rotation Formula
In this video we explain and derive Rodrigues’ Rotation Formula. This functions describes how to rotate an arbitrary vector about another arbitrary axis of rotation. This has applications to...
