Ferranti, L. (author), Lyons, L. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Keviczky, T. (author), Alonso-Mora, J. (author)This work presents a method for multi-robot coordination based on a novel distributed nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) formulation for trajectory optimization and its modified version to mitigate the effects of packet losses and delays in the communication among the robots. Our algorithms consider that each robot is equipped with an...journal article 2023

A string-based representation and crossover operator for evolutionary design of dynamical mechanismsKuppens, P.R. (author), Wolfslag, W.J. (author)Robots would perform better when their mechanical structure is specifically designed for their designated task, for instance by adding spring mechanisms. However, designing such mechanisms, which match the dynamics of the robot with the task, is hard and time consuming. To assist designers, a platform that automatically designs dynamical...journal article 2018
