1. A GPU Implementation of Kinodynamic Path Planning in Large Continuous Costmap Environments : Using Dijkstra's Algorithm and Simulated Annealing
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)Abstract : Path planning that takes kinodynamic constraints into account is a crucial part of critical missions where autonomous vehicles must function independently without communication from an operator as this ensures that the vehicle will be able to follow the planned path. In this thesis, an algorithm is presented that can plan kinodynamically feasible paths through large scale continuous costmap environments for different constraints on the maximum allowed acceleration and jerk along the path.

2. Coverage Motion Planning for Search and Rescue Missions : A Costmap Based Approach for fixed wing UAVs using Simulated Annealing &Cubic Splines
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)Abstract : The present study proposes a novel approach to Coverage Path Planning for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) inspired by the Orienteering Problem. The main goal is to develop an algorithm suitable for Search and Rescue Missions, which can produce a search pattern with dynamical constrains, that is not limited to the traditional back-and-forth motion or spiral patterns.
