Cooperative UAVs/Drones for Inspection of Civil Infrastructure: A Review of Current Challenges and Future Directions

Structural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Recently, UAVs/drones and their cooperative intelligent swarms have been used more frequently for structural assessment of critical infrastructure (i.e., bridges and wind turbines). Their remote sensing, monitoring, cooperation and communication capabilities facilitate and enhance the inspection process.

Robust optimal distance‐based formation control of uncertain nonlinear agents over directed topologies

Asian Journal of Control, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 2141-2157, September 2025.
Abstract This paper studies a formation control problem with distance constraints for nonlinear agents with uncertainties. Controlling an edge is assigned to only one of its incident agents. Directed graph theory is used to model the desired formation topology.
