Modular robots are highly versatile due to their ability to reconfigure and change their
mechanical properties. This ability makes them optimal for scenarios that require different …

This work presents a novel Aspect Ratio-Modular Vertical Take-Off and Landing (ARM-
VTOL) aerial robot, which is a meta-aircraft composed of two or more TiltRotor hybrid aircraft …

This paper presents a Genetic Algorithm (GA) designed to reconfigure a large group of
modular Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), each with different weights and inertia …

Modular robots have the advantage of self-assembling into a large and complex structure to
travel through territories beyond an individual robot's capacity. A swarm of mobile robots is …

This letter introduces a novel reconfigurable modular aerial robot capable of in-air self-
disassembly and achieving full-actuation control. The proposed robot utilizes a unique …

Large-scale, distributed cyber-physical systems are common in everyday life; just a few of
the critical applications include vehicles, automated factories and warehouses, the electric …

Vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft formation operations have significant advantages
in various application scenarios. It is worth noting that the high energy consumption and …
