Abstract
This article extends the capabilities of the harmonic potential field (HPF) approach to planning to cover both the kinematic and dynamic aspects of a robot's motion. The suggested approach converts the gradient guidance field from a harmonic potential to a control signal by augmenting it with a novel type of damping forces called nonlinear, anisotropic, damping forces (NADF). The HPF (harmonic potential field) approach to planning is emerging as a powerful paradigm for the guidance of autonomous agents.

Optimal trajectory generation for dynamic street scenarios in a Frenét Frame

TL;DR: A semi-reactive trajectory generation method, which can be tightly integrated into the behavioral layer of the holistic autonomous system, that realizes long-term objectives such as velocity keeping, merging, following, stopping, in combination with a reactive collision avoidance by means of optimal-control strategies within the Frenét-Frame of the street.

Kinodynamic RRT*: Asymptotically optimal motion planning for robots with linear dynamics

TL;DR: Kinodynamic RRT*, an incremental sampling-based approach for asymptotically optimal motion planning for robots with linear dynamics, is presented, which generalizes earlier work on RRT* for kinodynamic systems, and shows that for the rich subclass of systems with a nilpotent dynamics matrix, closed-form solutions for optimal trajectories can be derived.
