Optimal Geodesic Curvature Constrained Dubins' Path on Sphere with Free Terminal Orientation
Deepak Prakash Kumar, Swaroop Darbha, Satyanarayana Gupta Manyam +2
In this paper, motion planning for a vehicle moving on a unit sphere with unit speed is considered, wherein the desired terminal location is fixed, but the terminal orientation is…
Generalization of Optimal Geodesic Curvature Constrained Dubins' Path on Sphere with Free Terminal Orientation
Deepak Prakash Kumar, Swaroop Darbha, Satyanarayana Gupta Manyam +1
In this paper, motion planning for a Dubins vehicle on a unit sphere to attain a desired final location is considered. The radius of the Dubins path on the sphere is lower bounded…
Development of Linear Battery Model for Path Planning with Mixed Integer Linear Programming: Simulated and Experimental Validation
Drew Scott, Satyanarayana G. Manyam, David W. Casbeer +3
Mixed Integer Linear Programs (MILPs) are often used in the path planning of both ground and aerial vehicles. Such a formulation of the path planning problem requires a linear obje…
The Weighted Markov-Dubins Problem
Deepak Prakash Kumar, Swaroop Darbha, Satyanarayana Gupta Manyam +1
In this article, a variation of the classical Markov-Dubins problem is considered, which deals with curvature-constrained least-cost paths in a plane with prescribed initial and fi…
Path Planning and Energy Management of Hybrid Air Vehicles for Urban Air Mobility
Satyanarayana G. Manyam, David W. Casbeer, Swaroop Darbha +2
A novel coupled path planning and energy management problem for a hybrid unmanned air vehicle is considered, where the hybrid vehicle is powered by a dual gas/electric system. Such…
Optimal Geodesic Curvature Constrained Dubins' Paths on a Sphere
Swaroop Darbha, Athindra Pavan, K. R. Rajagopal +3
In this article, we consider the motion planning of a rigid object on the unit sphere with a unit speed. The motion of the object is constrained by the maximum absolute value, $U_{…
