Prescribed‐Time Disturbance‐Observing Chainlike Filtering Approach to Double‐Sided Event‐Driven Formation Tracking of Underactuated Underwater Vehicles With Kinematic and Kinetic Disturbances

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, Volume 35, Issue 16, Page 6752-6769, 10 November 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the distributed prescribed‐time formation tracking problem for uncertain multiple six‐degree‐of‐freedom underactuated underwater vehicles operating in dynamic state and input‐triggered environments. A critical challenge lies in addressing the nondifferentiability of event‐triggered state variables during recursive ...

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.

Sub‐Tree Scheduling for Wireless Sensor Networks With Partial Coverage: Complexity and Polynomial‐Size Formulations

Networks, Volume 85, Issue 3, Page 326-347, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Given an undirected graph G$$ G $$ whose edge weights change over s$$ s $$ time slots, the sub‐tree scheduling for wireless sensor networks with partial coverage asks to partition the vertices of G$$ G $$ in s$$ s $$ non‐empty trees such that the total weight of the trees is minimized.
