Optimal Universal Controllers for Roll Stabilization
Yuri A. Kapitanyuk, Anton V. Proskurnikov, Ming Cao
Roll stabilization is an important problem of ship motion control. This problem becomes especially difficult if the same set of actuators (e.g. a single rudder) has to be used for…
Persistent Flows and Non-Reciprocal Interactions in Deterministic Networks
Weiguo Xia, Guodong Shi, Ziyang Meng +2
This paper studies deterministic consensus networks with discrete-time dynamics under persistent flows and non-reciprocal agent interactions. An arc describing the interaction stre…
Opinion evolution in time-varying social influence networks with prejudiced agents
Anton V. Proskurnikov, Roberto Tempo, Ming Cao +1
Investigation of social influence dynamics requires mathematical models that are "simple" enough to admit rigorous analysis, and yet sufficiently "rich" to capture salient features…
Control of Asynchronous Imitation Dynamics on Networks
James Riehl, Pouria Ramazi, Ming Cao
Imitation is widely observed in populations of decision-making agents. Using our recent convergence results for asynchronous imitation dynamics on networks, we consider how such ne…
Controlling a triangular flexible formation of autonomous agents
Hector Garcia de Marina, Zhiyong Sun, Ming Cao +1
In formation control, triangular formations consisting of three autonomous agents serve as a class of benchmarks that can be used to test and compare the performances of different…
Distributed algorithm for controlling scale-free polygonal formations
Hector Garcia de Marina, Bayu Jayawardhana, Ming Cao
This paper presents a distributed algorithm for controlling the deployment of a team of mobile agents in formations whose shapes can be characterized by a broad class of polygons,…
Modulus consensus in discrete-time signed networks and properties of special recurrent inequalities
Anton V. Proskurnikov, Ming Cao
Recently the dynamics of signed networks, where the ties among the agents can be both positive (attractive) or negative (repulsive) have attracted substantial attention of the rese…
