The chaotic milling behaviors of interacting swarms after collision
Sayomi Kamimoto, Jason Hindes, Ira Schwartz
We consider the problem of characterizing the dynamics of interacting swarms after they collide and form a stationary center of mass. Modeling efforts have shown that the collision…
Critical transition for colliding swarms
Jason Hindes, Victoria Edwards, M. Ani Hsieh +1
Swarming patterns that emerge from the interaction of many mobile agents are a subject of great interest in fields ranging from biology to physics and robotics. In some application…
Patterned Dynamics of Delay-Coupled Swarms with Random Communication Graphs
K. Szwaykowska, L. Mier-y-Teran-Romero, I. B. Schwartz
Swarm and modular robotics are an emerging area in control of autonomous systems. However, coordinating a large group of interacting autonomous agents requires careful consideratio…
Pattern-Acquisition in Finite, Heterogenous, Delay-Coupled Swarms
Klimka Szwaykowska, Christoffer Heckman, Luis Mier-y-Teran-Romero +1
The self-organizing behavior of swarms of inter- acting particles or agents is a topic of intense research in fields extending from biology to physics and robotics. In this paper,…
Distributed allocation of mobile sensing swarms in gyre flows
Kenneth Mallory, M. Ani Hsieh, Eric Forgoston +1
We address the synthesis of distributed control policies to enable a swarm of homogeneous mobile sensors to maintain a desired spatial distribution in a geophysical flow environmen…
Noise Induced Pattern Switching in Randomly Distributed Delayed Swarm Patterns
Brandon Lindley, Luis Mier-y-Teran-Romero, Ira B. Schwartz
We study the effects of noise on the dynamics of a system of coupled self-propelling particles in the case where the coupling is time-delayed, and the delays are discrete and rando…
