One of the novel approaches in multiple quadrotor control is swarm robotics. It aims to mimic social behaviors of animals and insects. This paper presents the physical implementation of the swarm social foraging behavior in unmanned aerial vehicle quadrotors. To achieve this, it first explores the basic behavior of aggregation. It is implemented over a quadrotor swarm test-bed that makes use of external motion capture cameras. The completed algorithm makes use of the artificial potential function model combined with the environment resource profile model. Results show successful demonstration of the social foraging algorithm with minimal error in position. Also, the proposed algorithm’s performance presents an increase in aggregation speed and time as the number of swarm member increases.

This research article focuses on the theme of violence and its representation by the characters of the novel “This Savage Song” by Victoria Schwab. How violence is transmitted through genes to next generations and to what extent socio- psycho factors are involved in it, has also been discussed. Similarly, in what manner violent events and deeds by the parents affect the psychology of children and how it inculcates aggressive behaviour in their minds has been studied. What role is played by the parents in grooming the personality of children and ultimately their decisions to choose the right or wrong way has been argued. In the light of the theory of Judith Harris, this research paper highlights all the phenomena involved: How the social hierarchy controls the behaviour. In addition, the aggressive approach of the people in their lives has been analyzed in the light of the study of second theorist Thomas W Blume. As the novel is a unique representation of supernatural characters, the monsters, which are the products of some cruel deeds, this research paper brings out different dimensions of human sufferings with respect to these supernatural beings. Moreover, the researcher also discusses that, in what manner the curse of violence creates an inevitable vicious cycle of cruel monsters that makes the life of the characters turbulent and miserable.

Results of experimental studying radiation spatial structure of atmosphere background nonuniformities and of an unmanned aerial vehicle being the detection object are presented. The question on a possibility of its detection using optoelectronic systems against the background of a cloudy field in the near IR wavelength range is also considered.
