Physically-based modeling has been used in the past to support a variety of interactive modeling tasks including free-form surface design, mechanism design, constrained drawing, a...
We develop a new motion planning algorithm for a variant of a Dubins car with binary left/right steering and apply it to steerable needles, a new class of flexible beveltip medica...

Abstract. We present an interpolation-based planning and replanning algorithm for generating smooth paths through non-uniform cost grids. Most grid-based path planners use discrete...
— We introduce a method for constructing provably safe smooth feedback laws for car-like robots in obstaclecluttered polygonal environments. The robot is taken to be a point with...
Abstract— Kinodynamic planning algorithms have the potential to find feasible control trajectories which accomplish a task even in very nonlinear or constrained dynamical system...
