Science in pictures To the point: Closed-loop scheduling and control of waterborne AGVs for energy-efficient Inter Terminal Transport "We propose closed-loop energy-efficient scheduling and control of an autonomous Inter Terminal Transport (ITT) system using waterborne Autonomous Guided Vessels (waterborne AGVs). A novel pick-up and delivery problem considering safe intervals between berthing time slots of different waterborne AGVs is proposed. Waterborne AGVs are controlled in a cooperative distributed way to carry out assigned ..." [More...] Closed-loop scheduling and control of waterborne AGVs for energy-efficient Inter Terminal Transport. H. Zheng, R.R. Negenborn, G. Lodewijks. Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review, vol. 105, pp. 261-278, September 2017.    Coordination of multiple vessels via distributed nonlinear model predictive control "This work presents a method for multi-robot trajectory planning and coordination based on nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC). In contrast to centralized approaches, we consider the distributed case where each robot has an on-board computation unit to solve a local NMPC problem and can communicate with other robots in its neighborhood. We show that, thanks to tailored interactions (i.e., int..." [More...] Coordination of multiple vessels via distributed nonlinear model predictive control. L. Ferranti, R.R. Negenborn, T.
