Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) have been widely used to perform underwater
tasks. Due to the environmental disturbances, underactuated problems, system constraints …

Motion control is crucial for multilegged robot locomotion and task completion. This study
aims to address the fundamental challenges of inadequate foot tracking and weak leg …

The accuracy and stability of an underwater vehicle manipulator system (UVMS) are
essential for performing underwater tasks. However, exogenous disturbance and …

The exploitation/utilization of marine resources and the rapid development of urbanization
along coastal cities result in serious marine pollution, especially underwater diffusion …

One potential application of multirobot systems is collective transport, a task in which
multiple robots collaboratively move a payload that is too large or heavy for a single robot. In …

Creating safe paths in unknown and uncertain environments is a challenging aspect of
leader–follower formation control. In this architecture, the leader moves toward the target by …

Based on an improved performance function and error transformation, a kind of predefined-
time control method with prescribed performance is investigated for the trajectory tracking …

This study investigates the formation planning problem of tethered multirotor unmanned
aerial vehicle (UAV) cooperative transportation with unknown payload and cable length …

This article addresses the problem of cooperation and coordination transportation for
decoupling nonholonomic mobile manipulators (NMMs) in a workspace with obstacles. We …

In this paper, the formation obstacle avoidance problem of autonomous underwater vehicles
(AUVs) under the disturbances of ocean currents is studied. A variable formation …
