abstract = {In this paper, we propose a finite-time flocking particle model with nonlinear velocity coupling and inter-driving forces. Initially, we demonstrate that under specific initial conditions, the system achieves flocking within a finite timeframe, with all particles' velocities converging to the average of their initial velocities. Our results include some results in the literature. Furthermore, a special case of mutual driving is given. Finally, we validate the obtained results through numerical simulations to confirm their accuracy.}
