Pattern acquisition in Cucker-Smale models with a singular interaction

Share

We consider the decentralized control of a non-linear Cucker-Smale system of N agents with the aim of obtaining a desired predefined spatial pattern. Such multi-agent dynamics may exhibit self organization and emergent behaviour and have been proposed as a way to model satellite coordination, bird-flocking, social dynamics, and many other phenomena. The model and control scheme we propose allow the agents to reach consensus and a spatial pattern under certain conditions, while avoiding collisions between agents.

Biography:

Andrés Peters received the B.Sc and M.Sc. in Electronic Engineering degrees from the Technical University Federico
Santa María (Valparaóso, Chile) in 2007. In 2015, he obtained a Ph.D. degree from the Hamilton Institute at Maynooth University in Ireland. He is an Assistant Professor at the Electricity Department of UTEM in Santiago, Chile. His research interests include the applications of control theory in multi-agent and networked systems and the study of performance bounds for optimal control of linear systems.
