Generative Design for Resilience of Interdependent Network Systems
In our modern world, complex systems such as power grids, transportation networks, and communication systems can be disrupted by both internal uncertainties and external factors like natural disasters. To make these systems more resilient, researchers have been working on design strategies that improve both reliability and recovery capabilities.
Decentralized and Centralized Planning for Multi-Robot Additive Manufacturing
What can ants teach us about making better factories? Check out this paper recently published on JMD for a decentralized approach based on simple rules to enable multi-robot cooperative additive manufacturing.
