Abstract: This paper considers the global exponential stability of planar distributed manipulation control schemes. The “programmable vector field” approach is a commonly prop...
Human based algorithms to catch fly balls have been research and studied. In this paper, the validity of the human models are tested by catching balls that are dropped vertically...

Dynamical systems theory is used here as a theoretical language and tool to design a distributed control archictecture that generates navigation in formation, integrated with obst...
Orienting parts that measure only a few micrometers in diameter introduces several challenges that need not be considered at the macro-scale. First, there are several kinds of sti...
