Exact and over-approximated guarantees for corner cutting avoidance in a multi-obstacle environment
Grøtli, Esten Ingar; Stoican, Florin; Prodan, Ionela (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The corner cutting avoidance problem is an important but often overlooked part of motion planning strategies. Obstacle and collision avoidance constraints are usually imposed at the sampling time without regards to the ... -

Mid-Level MPC and 6 DOF Output Path Following for Robotic Manipulators
Arbo, Mathias Hauan; Grøtli, Esten Ingar; Gravdahl, Jan Tommy (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In this article we discuss some of the benefits of using an MPC as a mid-level controller between the path generator and the low-level joint controller of a robot system. The MPC handles rudimentary runtime constraints ... -
Motion- and Communication-Planning of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Delay Tolerant Network using Mixed-Integer Linear Programming
Grøtli, Esten Ingar; Johansen, Tor Arne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Large amounts of data are typically generated in applications such as surveillance of power lines and railways, inspection of gas pipes, and security surveillance. In the latter application it is a necessity that the data ... -
On corner cutting in multi-obstacle avoidance problems
Stoican, Florin; Grøtli, Esten Ingar; Prodan, Ionela; Oara, Cristian (Journal article, 2015)One challenging and not extensively studied issue in obstacle avoidance is the corner cutting problem. Avoidance constraints are usually imposed at the sampling time without regards to the intra-sample behavior of the ... -
On Model Predictive Path Following and Trajectory Tracking for Industrial Robots
Arbo, Mathias Hauan; Grøtli, Esten Ingar; Gravdahl, Jan Tommy (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In this article the model predictive path following controller and the model predictive trajectory tracking con-troller are compared for a robotic manipulator. We consider both the Runge-Kutta and collocation based ... -
On the globally exponentially convergent immersion and invariance speed observer for mechanical systems
Arbo, Mathias Hauan; Grøtli, Esten Ingar; Gravdahl, Jan Tommy (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In this article we present a reformulation of the invariance and immersion speed observer of Astolfi et al. as applied to mechanical systems with bounded inertia matrices.
