... constructing a surrogate. Subsequently, a bio-inspired approach called Physarum-based algorithm is used in conjunction with a navigation mesh to identify an optimal path satisfying a specific mobility reliability requirement. The developed Physarum-based framework is applied to reliability-based path planning...

... undesired directions do not exist. The kinematics analysis of a newly synthesized manipulator is discussed and the results indicate that the decoupling property of these architectures makes possible reaching real time control and path planning of parallel manipulators. Contributed by the Mechanisms...

... support structure. However, an automated method for path planning of such a system is necessary. Two techniques have been adapted to build the overhang between two adjacent layers: transition wall and surface tension . This paper addresses the critical slicing algorithm based on the above two techniques...
