A generalized simplified model for describing the dynamic behavior of distributed parameter systems is proposed. The various specific characteristics of gain and phase angle of distributed parameter systems are investigated from frequency response formulation and complex plane representation of the proposed simplified model. The complex plane investigation renders some important inequality cons...

In view of the shortcomings current multi-robot path planning strategies, such as high coupling, long total path, and waiting time for collision avoidance, well resulting problems low system robustness robot utilization, paper proposes Multi-robot particle swarm algorithm based on distributed three-dimensional space-time graphics motion decomposition. We first generate a dynamic temporary obsta...

In this paper we introduce Farm, a distributed simulation environment for simulating large-scale multi-agent systems. Farm uses a component-based architecture, allowing the researcher to easily modify and augment the simulation, as well as distribute the various pieces to spread the computational load and improve running time. Technical details of Farm’s architecture are described, along with d...

This paper focusses on recent developments and on-going research related to parallel and distributed approaches for crashworthiness simulation, using the PAM-CRASH code from ESI as an example. The developments described here relate directly to the take-up in the automotive industry of the latest High Performance Computing (HPC) technology, since crash and safety analysis is well established in ...
