Adaptive coordinated control for an under-actuated airplane–tractor system with parameter uncertainties by Pengjie Xu, Weining Huang, Tianrui Zhao, Wei Zhang, Tongwei Lu, Guiyan Qiang, Lin Zhang, Yanzheng Zhao

“…The coupled system composed of an airplane and a tractor has complex dynamical and highly under-actuated characteristics. In this study, to achieve coordinated motion of the airplane–tractor system with heavy load, a novel adaptive coordinated motion controller is proposed for the system to track a desired trajectory, ensuring both the transient and steady-state performance of the system during operation. …”
