Deep Continuum Deformation Coordination and Optimization with Safety Guarantees
Harshvardhan Uppaluru, Hossein Rastgoftar
In this paper, we develop and present a novel strategy for safe coordination of a large-scale multi-agent team with ``\textit{local deformation}" capabilities. Multi-agent coordina…
Multi-Layer Continuum Deformation Optimization of Multi-Agent Systems
Harshvardhan Uppaluru, Hossein Rastgoftar
This paper studies the problem of safe and optimal continuum deformation of a large-scale multi-agent system (MAS). We present a novel approach for MAS continuum deformation coordi…
Multi-Agent Coordination Fluid Flow Modeling and Experimental Evaluation
Harshvardhan Uppaluru, Mohammad Ghuran, Hossein Rastgoftar
Reliability is a critical aspect of multi-agent system coordination as it ensures that the system functions correctly and consistently. If one agent in the system fails or behaves…
Fast and Safe Aerial Payload Transport in Urban Areas
Aeris El Asslouj, Harshvardhan Uppaluru, Hossein Rastgoftar
This paper studies the problem of fast and safe aerial payload transport by a single quadcopter in urban areas. The quadcopter payload system (QPS) is considered as a rigid body an…
Quadrotor Formation Flying Resilient to Abrupt Vehicle Failures via a Fluid Flow Navigation Function
Matthew Romano, Harshvardhan Uppaluru, Hossein Rastgoftar +1
This paper develops and experimentally evaluates a navigation function for quadrotor formation flight that is resilient to abrupt quadrotor failures and other obstacles. The naviga…
Drones Practicing Mechanics
Harshvardhan Uppaluru, Hossein Rastgoftar
Mechanics of materials is a classic course of engineering presenting the fundamentals of strain and stress analysis to junior undergraduate students in several engineering majors.…
A Continuous-Time Optimal Control Approach to Congestion Control
Harshvardhan Uppaluru, Hamid Emadi, Hossein Rastgoftar
Traffic congestion has become a nightmare to modern life in metropolitan cities. On average, a driver spending X hours a year stuck in traffic is one of most common sentences we of…
Collision-Free Continuum Deformation Coordination of a Multi-Quadcopter System Using Cooperative Localization
Hamid Emadi, Harshvardhan Uppaluru, Hashem Ashrafiuon +1
This paper integrates cooperative localization with continuum deformation coordination of a multi-quadcopter system {(MQS) to assure safety and optimality of the quadcopter team co…
A Physics-Based Data-Driven Approach for Finite Time Estimation of Pandemic Growth
Harshvardhan Uppaluru, Hamid Emadi, Hossein Rastgoftar
COVID-19 is a global health crisis that has had unprecedented, widespread impact on households across the United States and has been declared a global pandemic on March 11, 2020 by…
A Physics-Based Safety Recovery Approach for Fault-Resilient Multi-Quadcopter Coordination
Hamid Emadi, Harshvardhan Uppaluru, Hossein Rastgoftar
This paper develops a novel physics-based approach for fault-resilient multi-quadcopter coordination in the presence of abrupt quadcopter failure. Our approach consists of two main…
