| Abstract | A major limitation to the use of helicopters in heavy construction has been that the masses that can be effectively and safely transported are restricted. One solution was the construction of the so-called heavy-lift helicopters. However it has been established that there are physical and economic limitations to the payload that can be transported. It has been proposed to circumvent this limitation by using multiple helicopters to move a single mass. The concept has been flight tested for two helicopters (twinlift) and the results were encouraging but showed that automatic control would be necessary to make the concept successful. In this paper the authors present some initial models and explore some of the control-theoretic problems inherent in the twinlift problem. A simplified linear model is examined, and it is shown that certain natural control schemes are not feasible, but that it is possible to control the linear model while preserving the essential characteristics of twinlift profile. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
