Self-organized flocking in mobile robot swarms
Turgut, Ali Emre; Gökçe, Fatih; Şahin, Erol (2008-09-01)
In this paper, we study self-organized flocking in a swarm of mobile robots. We present Kobot, a mobile robot platform developed specifically for swarm robotic studies. We describe its infrared-based short range sensing system, capable of measuring the distance from obstacles and detecting kin robots, and a novel sensing system called the virtual heading system (VHS) which uses a digital compass and a wireless communication module for sensing the relative headings of neighboring robots. We propose a behavi...
Self-organised Flocking of Robotic Swarm in Cluttered Environments
Liu, Zheyu; Turgut, Ali Emre; Lennox, Barry; Arvin, Farshad (2021-01-01)
Self-organised flocking behaviour, an emergent collective motion, appears in various physical and biological systems. It has been widely utilised to guide the swarm robotic system in different applications. In this paper, we developed a self-organised flocking mechanism for the homogeneous robotic swarm, which can achieve the collective motion with obstacle avoidance in a cluttered environment. The proposed mechanism introduces an obstacle avoidance approach to the Active Elastic Sheet model that was previo...

Self-sustained oscillatory behavior of NO+CH4+O-2 reaction over titania-supported Pd catalysts
OZKAN, UMIT; KUMTHEKAR, MAHESH; Karakaş, Gürkan (Elsevier BV, 1997-10-01)
Self-sustained, regular oscillations were observed in NO + CH4 + O-2 reaction over Pd/TiO2 catalysts at specific temperatures and oxygen concentrations. The oscillatory behavior was investigated combining NO reduction and methane combustion reaction studies with additional catalyst characterization experiments performed under controlled atmospheres. The catalyst was prepared using a wet impregnation technique with Pd-acetate as the precursor for palladium. A fixed-bed, flow reactor system was used to perfor...
Self-organized flocking with a mobile robot swarm
Turgut, Ali Emre; Koku, Ahmet Buğra; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2008)
In this thesis, we study self-organized flocking using a swarm of mobile robots. We first present a mobile robot platform having two novel sensing systems developed specifically for swarm robotic studies. We describe its infrared-based short-range sensing system, capable of measuring the range to obstacles and detecting kin robots. In particular, we describe a novel sensing system called the virtual heading sensor (VHS), which combines a digital compass and a wireless communication module to form a scalable...
