  2. Falling cat problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falling_cat_problem

    A solution of the falling cat problem is a curve in the configuration space that is horizontal with respect to the connection (that is, it is admissible by the physics) with prescribed initial and final configurations. Finding an optimal solution is an example of optimal motion planning. [11] [12]

  3. Motion planning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_planning

    A basic motion planning problem is to compute a continuous path that connects a start configuration S and a goal configuration G, while avoiding collision with known obstacles. The robot and obstacle geometry is described in a 2D or 3D workspace , while the motion is represented as a path in (possibly higher-dimensional) configuration space .

  4. Kinodynamic planning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinodynamic_planning

    Later they extended the technique to many other cases, for example, to 3D open-chain kinematic robots under full Lagrangian dynamics. [2] [3] More recently, many practical heuristic algorithms based on stochastic optimization and iterative sampling were developed, by a wide range of authors, to address the kinodynamic planning problem. These ...

  5. Range of a projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_projectile

    The first solution corresponds to when the projectile is first launched. The second solution is the useful one for determining the range of the projectile. Plugging this value for (t) into the horizontal equation yields = ⁡ ⁡ Applying the trigonometric identity

  6. Dynamic programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming

    Top-down approach: This is the direct fall-out of the recursive formulation of any problem. If the solution to any problem can be formulated recursively using the solution to its sub-problems, and if its sub-problems are overlapping, then one can easily memoize or store the solutions to the sub-problems in a table (often an array or hashtable ...

  7. Brachistochrone curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachistochrone_curve

    The curve of fastest descent is not a straight or polygonal line (blue) but a cycloid (red).. In physics and mathematics, a brachistochrone curve (from Ancient Greek βράχιστος χρόνος (brákhistos khrónos) 'shortest time'), [1] or curve of fastest descent, is the one lying on the plane between a point A and a lower point B, where B is not directly below A, on which a bead slides ...

  8. Projectile motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectile_motion

    In projectile motion, the horizontal motion and the vertical motion are independent of each other; that is, neither motion affects the other. This is the principle of compound motion established by Galileo in 1638, [ 1 ] and used by him to prove the parabolic form of projectile motion.

  9. Stokes problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_problem

    The horizontal velocity is the blue line, and the corresponding horizontal particle excursions are the red dots. The case for an oscillating far-field flow, with the plate held at rest, can easily be constructed from the previous solution for an oscillating plate by using linear superposition of solutions.
