In this paper we outline an approach for the collision-free trajectory planning of two robot arms which are modeled as connected line segments. A new approach to determine the collision between two robot arms and the boundary of the collision region in the coordination space is proposed. The coordination curve may then be chosen to avoid the collision region. For minimum time trajectory, time is assigned to this curve by dynamic time scaling under constraints such as maximum torque or maximum angular velocity of each actuator. A comparison of the proposed method and the graphical method of determining the collision region is also included. Finally, as an example, some simulation results for two SCARA type robots are presented.

Collision avoidance for multiple aircraft can be stated as a problem ofmaintaining safe distance between aircraft in conflict. Optimal collision avoidanceproblem seeks to minimize the given cost function while simultaneously satisfyingconstraints. The cost function could be a function of time or control input. This paper addresses the trajectory time-optimization problem for collision avoidance of unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs). The problem is difficult to handle in general due to the two-point boundary value problem subject to dynamic environments. Some simplifying aleorithms are used for potential applications in on-line operation.Although under possibility of more complicated problems, a dynamic problem is transformed into a static one by prediction of the conflict time and some appropriate assumptions.

To assess the possible collision risk between Mokpo Harbour Bridge, which is under construction, and passing vessels, we proposed Real-Time Bridge-Vessel Collision Model (RT-BVCM) in this paper. The mathematical model of RT-BVCM consists of the causation probability by the vessel aberrancy due to navigation environments, the geometric probability by the structural feature of a bridge relative to a ship size and, the failure probability by the ship collision track and the stopping distance which is not to come to a stop before hitting the obstacles. Then, the probabilistic mathematical model represented as risk index with the risk level from 1 to 5. The merit of the proposed model to the collision model proposed by AASHTO (American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials) is that it can provide enough time to take adequate collision avoiding action. Through the simulation tests to the two kinds of test ships, 3,000 GT and 10,000 GT, it is cleary found that the proposed model can be used as a collision evaluation model to the passing vessel and Mokpo Harbour Bridge.

In this paper a complicated structural behavior in collision and its effects of energy translation to the collision bulkhead was examined through a methodology of the numerical simulation to obtain a ideal bow construction and a location of collision bulkhead against head on collision. In the present the bow structure is normally designed in consideration of its specific structural arrangements and internal and external loads in these area such as hydrostatic and dynamic pressure, wave impact and bottom slamming in accordance with the Classification rules, and the specific location of collision bulkhead by SOLAS requirement. By these studies the behavior of the bow collapse due to collision was synthetically evaluated for the different size of tankers and its operational speed limits, and by the results of these simulation it provides the optimal design concept for the bow construction to prevent the subsequent plastic deformation onto or near to the collision bulkhead boundary and to determine the rational location of collision bulkhead.

This paper presents the development of a real-time algorithm for collision detection, collision avoidance and guidance to way-point. Three-dimensional point-mass aircraft models are used. For collision detection, time of closest point of approach(CPA) and distance at CPA are compared to threshold values. For collision avoidance, optimal acceleration input which maximizes the terminal relative distance is calculated based on optimal control theory. For guidance to way-point, proportional navigation guidance, the well-known method, is used. Two scenarios of encounter situation are illustrated to validate performance of proposed algorithm.

Effects of collision angle on heat transfer characteristics of a liquid droplet impinging on a heated wall above the Leidenfrost point temperature were experimentally investigated. The heated wall and droplet temperatures were $506^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$, respectively, and the impact angle varied from $20^{\circ}$ to $90^{\circ}$ while the normal collision velocity was constant at 0.27 m/s. The droplet collision behaviors and the surface temperature distribution were measured using synchronized high-speed video and infrared cameras. The major physical parameters influencing upon droplet-wall collision heat transfer, such as residence time, wall heat flux, effective heat transfer area, heat transfer amount, were analyzed. It was found at the constant normal collision velocity that the residence time, wall heat flux and effective heat transfer area were hardly not changed, resulting in the almost constant heat transfer amount.

The collision-free path of a manipulator should be regenerated in the real time to achieve collision safety when obstacles or humans come into the workspace of the manipulator. A probabilistic roadmap (PRM) method, one of the popular path planning schemes for a manipulator, can find a collision-free path by connecting the start and goal poses through the roadmap constructed by drawing random nodes in the free configuration space. The path planning method based on the configuration space shows robust performance for static environments which can be converted into the off-line processing. However, since this method spends considerable time on converting dynamic obstacles into the configuration space, it is not appropriate for real-time generation of a collision-free path. On the other hand, the method based on the workspace can provide fast response even for dynamic environments because it does not need the conversion into the configuration space. In this paper, we propose an efficient real-time path planning by combining the PRM and the potential field methods to cope with static and dynamic environments. The PRM can generate a collision-free path and the potential field method can determine the configuration of the manipulator. A series of experiments show that the proposed path planning method can provide robust performance for various obstacles.

Although there are more complicated problems, by prediction of conflict time and some assumptions, we changed a dynamic environment problem into a static one.

The basic function of on industrial robot system is to move objects in the workspace fast and accurately. One difficulty in performing this function is that the path of robot should be programmed to avoid the collision with obstacles, that is, tools, or facilities. This path planning requires much off-line programming time. In this study, a SOM technique to find the collision-free path of robot in real time is developed. That is, the collision-free map is obtained through SOM learning and a collision-free path is found using the map in real time during the robot operation. A learning procedure to obtain the map and an algorithm to find a short path using the map is developed and simulated. Finally, a path smoothing method to stabilize the motion of robot is suggested.
