RUDN scientists have developed a new method for determining the orientation of objects in the antenna complex based on measurements of a strapdown inertial system

Employees of the laboratory of physical processes and technologies for manufacturing wave solid-state gyroscopes (WSG) have found a General solution to the problem of nonlinear filtering of orientation parameters based on inertial measurements of objects located on a base subject to highly dynamic disturbances.

It is established that modern methods for determining orientation using measurements of satellite navigation systems or inertial orientation systems do not provide the required accuracy for solving the problem of orientation of large or medium-sized objects. In this regard, a new dynamic algorithm for estimating stochastic orientation parameters has been developed that is invariant to the nature of the base movement and provides stability and the required accuracy of estimation under the most General assumptions about the nature of interference of sensitive elements of a strapdown inertial orientation system built on the basis of WSG. The Rodriguez-Hamilton parameter vector is used as the observed vector of orientation parameters, and the accelerometer output signal is proposed to be used as its observer. Based on the stochastic nonlinear equations of the vector of parameters of the current orientation and the equations of stochastic models of accelerometer output signals constructed for the most General case of object motion, a generalized Kalman filter was formed that provides a General solution to the problem of estimating the orientation parameters of an arbitrary structure on a movable base. The results of numerical simulation confirmed the possibility of using the developed method for solving the problem of high-precision orientation determination without correction from global satellite navigation systems over a long time interval.

Focusing on science as a way of life, sustainable development goals as a scientist's mission and new technological developments: RUDN honored leaders in science and innovation

The RUDN University Science and Innovation Prize winners were honoured at the extended meeting of the Academic Council. In 2024 the terms of the traditional RUDN University Prize were changed: for the first time the competition was announced in two categories: leading scientists and young scientists.

RUDN University scientist: Africa relies on small modular reactors to solve energy problems

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), electricity consumption in Africa has increased by more than 100% over the past two years (2020-2022). However, 74.9% of this energy is still produced by burning organic fuels — natural gas, coal and oil. At the same time, the level of electrification on the continent remains extremely low — only 24%, while in other developing countries it reaches 40%. Even in grid-connected areas, electricity supply is often unreliable: industrial enterprises lose energy on an average of 56 days a year.

RUDN dentists developed a program that will accelerate the work of an orthodontist by 40%

Today, diagnosis and treatment planning with orthodontists takes several days. Also, complications can arise during treatment that slow down the patient's recovery process. For example, improper orthodontic treatment planning can lead to temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
