Collaboration of agents in a natural swarm enables the accomplishment of tasks that would be difficult or impossible for a single agent to complete alone. For example, a swarm of autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) enables the collaborative sensing of bulky loads for transportation over impassable terrains when the load weighs several times more than each UAV. In this work, we propose a hierarchical algorithmic architecture that supports the search and coverage of various unknown payload profiles for subsequent transportation. The grasping formation of UAVs over the payload emerges from the synthetic behaviours in the architecture without any path planning. Experiments show that our proposed design can be successfully applied in searching and coverage of various loads and has been validated in the real world through the use of Crazyflie micro-UAVs. Furthermore, the proposed grasping formation satisfies static equilibrium thereby reducing orientation changes in the load-swarm system during transportation.

Climate change and geopolitics have led to the conception of plans for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving the sustainability of existing fossil-based energy systems. In this respect, district heating has been identified as an indispensable player for its potential to integrate seamlessly environmentally-friendly heat sources. To improve the efficiency of these district heating systems, optimal operation schemes can be devised and enforced through control systems. To this end, we present a control-oriented nonlinear ODE-based model of temperature dynamics in a multi-producer district heating system. The model features a modular design and comprises the thermal dynamics of heat exchangers of producers and consumers interconnected by a distribution network of meshed topology. Then, we establish passivity properties and zero-state detectability for the modeled temperature dynamics that could be exploited for controller design and solving constrained optimization problems.

An important aspect related to the effects of agricultural activities on the environment is represented by the nutrient loss in water and air (specifically nitrogen). The interactions between catchments hydrological processes, management of farm activities, climate changes and nitrogen losses constitute a complex phenomenon yet not well understood, being an important concern from the sustainable agriculture perspective. Nitrogen can be lost with water as leaching or runoff, or as gas as ammonia volatilization. Nitrous oxide (N2O) is particularly problematic because it is also a powerful greenhouse gas. The goal of the current article is to present innovative digital techniques to advance in understanding of this phenomena through an Information System that integrates Artificial Intelligence techniques such as Semantic Technologies and Machine Learning (ML) into Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) to support smart farming and sustainable agriculture.
