In this paper, we develop a thermodynamic framework for addressing consensus problems for nonlinear multiagent dynamical systems with fixed and switching topologies. Specifically, we present distributed nonlinear static and dynamic controller architectures for multiagent coordination. The proposed controller architectures are predicated on system thermodynamic notions resulting in controller architectures involving the exchange of information between agents that guarantee that the closed-loop dynamical network is consistent with basic thermodynamic principles.
