Geometric Modeling of Dubins Airplane Movement and its Metric
The time-optimal trajectory for an airplane from some starting point to some final point is studied by many authors. Here, we consider the extension of robot planer motion of Dubins model in three dimensional spaces. In this model, the system has independent bounded control over both the altitude velocity and the turning rate of airplane movement in a non-obstacle space. Here, in this paper a g...
متن کاملLow dimensional flat manifolds with some classes of Finsler metric
Flat Riemannian manifolds are (up to isometry) quotient spaces of the Euclidean space R^n over a Bieberbach group and there are an exact classification of of them in 2 and 3 dimensions. In this paper, two classes of flat Finslerian manifolds are stuided and classified in dimensions 2 and 3.
متن کاملAverage control system and Finsler geometry
This talk will define an ”average control system” for system that have a conservative drift and a very small control. The prototype is low thrust orbital transfer of earth sattelites. Using averaging to treat small perturbations of integrable systems is not new; the originality here is that averaging can be performed before the variations of the control are decided, thus yielding really an ”ave...
متن کاملRelative volume comparison theorems in Finsler geometry and their applications
We establish some relative volume comparison theorems for extremal volume forms of Finsler manifolds under suitable curvature bounds. As their applications, we obtain some results on curvature and topology of Finsler manifolds. Our results remove the usual assumption on S-curvature that is needed in the literature.
متن کاملSub-finsler Structures from the Time-optimal Control Viewpoint for Some Nilpotent Distributions
In this paper we study the sub-Finsler geometry as a time-optimal control problem. In particular, we consider non-smooth and non-strictly convex sub-Finsler structures associated with the Heisenberg, Grushin, and Martinet distributions. Motivated by problems in geometric group theory, we characterize extremal curves, discuss their optimality, and calculate the metric spheres, proving their Eucl...
