  • Patent number: 10597039
    Abstract: Method for the estimation of at least a variable (?; ?x, ?y; ?, ?) affecting a vehicle dynamics (10), including measuring dynamic variables (MQ) of the vehicle (10) during its motion, calculating in real time an estimate (Formula (I)) of said variable (?; ?x, ?y; ?, ?), on the basis of said measured dynamic variables (MQ), The method includes: calculating (230) said estimate of said at least a variable (?; ?x, ?y; ?, ?) by an estimation procedure (DVS?; DVS??,-DVS???) comprising taking in account a set of dynamic variables (MQ) measured during the motion of the vehicle (10) over respective time intervals (ny, nw, n?, nx, n?) and applying on said set of measured dynamic variables (MQ) at least an optimal nonlinear regression function (ƒ*?; ƒ*x, ƒ*y; ƒ*?1, ƒ*?2, ƒ*?1, ƒ?2) calculated with respect to said variable (?; ?x, ?y; ?, ?) to estimate to obtain said estimate of said variable (?; ?x, ?y; ?, ?), said optimal non linear regression function (ƒ*?; ƒ*x, ƒ*y; ƒ*?1, ƒ*?2, ƒ*?1, ƒ*?2) being obtained by an optima

  • Patent number: 9366225
    Abstract: An actuating system for controlling the flight of a power wing profile or kite controlled via at least two cables for conversion of wind energy into electrical or mechanical energy, includes a first unit for exerting an action of unwinding-winding of the cables to the same extent, and a second unit set between the power kite and the first unit for providing an action of differential control of the cables. The system employs a single motor or motor/generator.

  • Patent number: 9366232
    Abstract: Wind energy is converted into electrical or mechanical energy through the flight of at least one power wing profile tethered via one or more cables to a ground unit moved by the power wing profile along a path of alternating displacement for driving a generator, where the path of alternating displacement is orientable so as to set itself in a direction substantially orthogonal to the direction of the wind. During the phases of flight of the power wing profile in conditions of generation of energy the length of the cables is kept constant.
