This monograph presents new algorithms for formation control of multi-agent systems (MAS) based on principles of continuum mechanics. Beginning with an overview of traditional methods, the author then introduces an innovative new approach whereby agents of an MAS are considered as particles in a continuum evolving in ℝn whose desired configuration is required to satisfy an admissible deformation function. The necessary theory and its validation on a mobile-agent-based swarm test bed are considered for two primary tasks: homogeneous transformation of the MAS and deployment of a random distribution of agents on a desired configuration. The framework for this model is based on homogeneous transformations ... Read more

Reviews for Continuum Deformation of Multi-Agent Systems
“The book addresses the formation control problem where the followers have their desired positions to track and the desired positions are specified by using the HT approach. Many color illustrations and detailed simulation parameters are provided, which helps readers better understand the results in the book.” (He Bai, Mathematical Reviews, February, 2018)
