Distributed event-triggered flocking control of Lagrangian systems
Ernesto Aranda-Escolástico, Leonardo J. Colombo, María Guinaldo
In this paper, an event-triggered control protocol is developed to investigate flocking control of Lagrangian systems, where event-triggering conditions are proposed to determine w…
Learning Rigidity-based Flocking Control with Gaussian Processes
Manuela Gamonal, Thomas Beckers, George J. Pappas +1
Flocking control of multi-agents system is challenging for agents with partially unknown dynamics. This paper proposes an online learning-based controller to stabilize flocking mot…
Generalized hybrid momentum maps and reduction by symmetries of forced mechanical systems with inelastic collisions
Leonardo J. Colombo, Manuel de León, María Emma Eyrea Irazú +1
This paper discusses reduction by symmetries for autonomous and non-autonomous forced mechanical systems with inelastic collisions. In particular, we introduce the notion of genera…
Geometric Control for Load Transportation with Quadrotor UAVs by Elastic Cables
Jacob R. Goodman, Juan S. Cely, Thomas Beckers +1
Groups of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly utilized in transportation task as the combined strength allows to increase the maximum payload. However, the resulting m…
Variational Obstacle Avoidance with Applications to Interpolation Problems in Hybrid Systems
Jacob R. Goodman, Leonardo J. Colombo
We study variational obstacle avoidance problems on complete Riemannian manifolds and apply the results to the construction of piecewise smooth curves interpolating a set of knot p…
Geometric Control of two Quadrotors Carrying a Rigid Rod with Elastic Cables
Jacob R. Goodman, Leonardo J. Colombo
This paper presents the design of a geometric trajectory tracking controller for the cooperative task of two quadrotor UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) carrying and transporting a r…
