In recent years, the well-developed Vicsek model has attracted more and more attention. Unfortunately, in-depth research on its convergence speed is not yet completed. In this paper, we investigate some key factors governing the convergence speed of the Vicsek model with the assistance of extensive numerical simulations. A significant phenomenon surfaces that the convergence time scales obeys a...

In recent years, many efforts have been addressed on collision avoidance of collectively moving agents. In this paper, we propose a modified version of the Vicsek model with adaptive speed, which can guarantee the absence of collisions. However, this strategy leads to an aggregated state with slowly moving agents. We therefore further add a certain repulsion, which results in both faster...
