This paper tackles a distributed hybrid affine formation control (HAFC) problem for Euler–Lagrange multi-agent systems with modelling uncertainties using full-state feedback in both time-varying and constant formation cases. First, a novel two-layer framework is adopted to define the HAFC problem. Using the property of the affine transformation, we present the sufficient and necessary conditions of achieving the affine localizability. Because only parts of the leaders and followers can access to the desired formation information and states of the dynamic leaders, respectively, we design a distributed finite-time sliding-mode estimator to acquire the desired position, velocity, and acceleration of each agent. In the sequel, combined with the integral barrier Lyapunov functions, we propose a distributed formation control law for each leader in the first layer and a distributed affine formation control protocol for each follower …
