The paper presents a fluid dynamics based framework for control of emergent behaviors of robot swarms that are modeled as fluids. A distributed low-level control mechanism is developed based on Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) and it is coupled with a high-level control layer that is responsible for the control of fluid parameters to generate desired behaviors from the swarming characteristics of the robots. It is shown by simulations that using the same low-level SPH model, different swarming behaviors can emerge from the local interactions of robots according to the settings of the fluid parameters that are controlled by the high-level control layer.

SIMULATION OF FLUID ENVIRONMENTS ON ROBOTIC ORTHOSES FOR REHABİLİTATİON PURPOSES Konukseven, Erhan İlhan(2017-12-31) SIMULATION OF FLUID ENVIRONMENTS ON ROBOTIC ORTHOSES FOR REHABİLİTATİON PURPOSES
Estimation of thermally stimulated current in as grown TlGaSeS layered single crystals by multilayered perceptron neural network Kucuk, Ilker; Yildirim, Tacettin; Hasanlı, Nızamı; Ozkan, Husnu (Elsevier BV, 2011-6) This paper presents an artificial neural network approach to compute thermally stimulated current (TSC) in as-grown T1GaSeS layered single crystals. The experimental data have been obtained from TSC measurements. The network has been trained by a genetic algorithm (GA). The results confirmed that the proposed model could provide an accurate computation of the TSC.
Computed Torque Control of an Aerial Manipulation System with a Quadrotor and a 2-DOF Robotic Arm Bulut, Nebi; Turgut, Ali; Aríkan, Kutluk (SCITEPRESS, AV D MANUELL, 27A 2 ESQ, SETUBAL, 2910-595, PORTUGAL; 2019) This paper presents the control of an aerial manipulation system with a quadrotor and a 2-DOF robotic arm by using the computed torque control method. The kinematic and dynamic model of the system is obtained by modeling the quadrotor and the robotic arm as a unified system. Then, the equation of motion of the unified system is got in the form of a standard robot dynamics equation. For the trajectory control of the system, computed torque control is used. Gains of the controller are optimized by using nonli...
DEVELOPMENT OF A SOCIAL REINFORCEMENT LEARNING BASED AGGREGATION METHOD WITH A MOBILE ROBOT SWARM Gür, Emre; Turgut, Ali Emre; Şahin, Erol; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2022-9-09) In this thesis, the development of a social, reinforcement learning-based aggregation method is covered together with the development of a mobile robot swarm of Kobot- Tracked (Kobot-T) robots. The proposed method is developed to improve efficiency in low robot density swarm environments especially when the aggregated area is difficult to find. The method is called Social Reinforcement Learning, and Landmark-Based Aggregation (SRLA) and it is based on Q learning. In this method, robots share their Q tables ...
Control of an underactuated system around a periodic orbit Duyul, Ayşe Deniz; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın; Ankaralı, Mustafa Mert; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2018) Quasi-periodic behavior is one of the most important fundamental building blocks for locomotion in biological (and robotic) systems. The dynamics that govern the motion of such behaviors are generally highly nonlinear and underactuated. One method of analyzing the quasi-periodic behaviors of such systems is to linearize the system around these periodic trajectories. Such a linearization provides us a linear time periodic (LTP) system around the neighborhood of the periodic orbit. Analysis and control of LTP...
