The detailed reconstruction of complex unknown environments is a challenging task in several robotic applications. Multi-robot systems combining the advantages of aerial and ground vehicles are often used for this purpose, where the different perspectives of sensors are leveraged to reduce the proportion of uncovered areas. Since the lower speed of ground robots in cluttered environments compared to aerial vehicles can significantly limit the efficiency of the exploration, in this paper we propose a cooperative mapping system in which only the necessary regions are assigned to the ground vehicle. These regions are selected based on the structural analysis of the 3D model built by an aerial robot and a global path is computed connecting them which only passes traversable parts of the environment. A ground 3D map is also created and the two models are fused when the robot reaches the last waypoint of the path. We tested our solution in multiple simulated environments to verify its functionality.

Due to the lower cost and higher maneuverability, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have found extensive use in both the civilian and military worlds. Path planning, as a crucial problem in the process of UAVs flight, aims to determine the optimal routes for multiple UAVs from various starting points to a single destination. However, because of the involvement of complex conditional constraints, path planning becomes a highly challenging problem. The path planning problem involving numerous UAVs is examined in this research, and a SAAPF-MADDPG algorithm based on Artificial Potential Field (APF) is suggested as a solution. First, a SA-greedy algorithm that can change the probability of random exploration by agents based on the number of steps and successful rounds to prevent UAVs from getting trapped in a local optimum. Then, we design complex reward functions based on APF to guide UAVs to destination faster. Finally, SAAPF-MADDPG is evaluated against the MADDPG, DDPG, and MATD3 methods in simulation scenarios to confirm its efficacy.

A nonlinear feedback control scheme for continuous, binary, tray, multiple-product, and high-purity distillation columns has been proposed. Vapor-liquid equilibrium curve of raw material is presented. Physical properties, kinematics, and dynamics of the distillation column are also calculated. Automatic process control technique is designed for the composition of product in order to follow a desired trajectory. controlling is solved with a novel nonlinear, adaptive approach, called Robust Fixed Point Transformation (RFPT) as well as with the classical, linear PID controller so as to compare their performance. RFPT provides a remedy to disturbances that occur at linear process control.

This paper presents a control design framework for the integration of robust control and reinforcement learning-based (RL) control agent. The proposed integration method is applied for motion control of autonomous road vehicles, providing safe motion. In the integrated motion control, longitudinal and lateral dynamics are incorporated. The high-performance motion of the vehicle, e.g., high-velocity motion, path following, and reduction of lateral acceleration, through the RL-based control agent is achieved. The training through Proximal Policy Optimization during episodes is performed. Safe motion with guaranteed performances, i.e., keeping limits on lateral error, through the robust control and the supervisor is achieved. The robust control is designed through the H ∞ method, and in the supervisor, a constrained quadratic programming task is performed. As a result, lateral and longitudinal control inputs of the vehicle are calculated by the integrated control system. The effectiveness of the proposed control method using simulation scenarios and test scenarios on a small-scaled test vehicle is illustrated.

A smooth optimal control problem with mixed constraints is considered. Under the normality assumption, a proof of second-order necessary optimality conditions based on the Robinson stability theorem is provided. The main feature of the obtained result is that the local regularity with respect to the mixed constraints is assumed, that is, a regularity in an ε-tube along the minimizer, but not the conventional global regularity hypothesis. This impacts the maximum condition. Therefore, the normal set of Lagrange multipliers fulfills the Legendre-Clebsch condition and the maximum principle. At the same time, the maximum condition is modified since, now, the maximum is taken over a reduced feasible set. Furthermore, the case of abnormal minimizers is considered. The same type of reduced maximum condition is obtained along with a refined Legendre-Clebsch condition which is meaningful in the abnormal case.
