Smooth Optimised A*-Guided DWA for Mobile Robot Path Planning

open access: yesApplied Sciences
In mobile robot path planning, the traditional A* algorithm suffers from high path redundancy and poor smoothness, while the Dynamic Window Approach (DWA) tends to deviate from the global optimal path and has low efficiency in avoiding dynamic obstacles ...

Simple function forms and nucleon-nucleus total cross sections

open access: yes, 2004
Total cross sections for neutron scattering with energies between 10 and 600 MeV and from nine nuclei spanning the mass range from 6Li to 238U have been analyzed using a simple function of three parameters.

The epidemiology of the blackleg pathogen, Leptosphaeria maculans, impacts fungicide resistance management strategies

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Understanding how infection timing drives disease is essential for the development of fungicide resistance management strategies. For blackleg disease of canola, all infection timings can contribute to the following generation, therefore all fungicide applications have the ability to select for resistance.

On the birational section conjecture with local conditions

open access: yes, 2015
A birationally liftable Galois section s of a hyperbolic curve X/k over a number field k yields an adelic point x(s) in the smooth completion of X. We show that x(s) is X-integral outside a set of places of Dirichlet density 0, or s is cuspidal.

Distribution, health and welfare of donkeys working in licensed commercial operations throughout Great Britain

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In Great Britain, donkey work has shifted from beach donkey rides towards a greater diversity of economic activities, such as wellness industries, films and exhibits. This research investigates the distribution, health and welfare of donkeys in licensed activities in Great Britain.

Improved A* and DWA fusion algorithm based path planning for intelligent substation inspection robot

open access: yesMeasurement + Control
To solve the intelligent substation inspection robot path planning with low global efficiency, search node redundancy, and may even fail under a dynamic obstacle environment, which is normally based on the A* or dynamic window approach (DWA) algorithms ...

A Review of the Applications and Challenges of Pulsed Electric Fields in Fish Ecological Protection

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The use of pulsed electric fields (PEF) to regulate fish swimming patterns, especially during migratory channel restoration in dammed rivers, faces significant operational challenges. These challenges can generally be attributed to the multifaceted nature of fish behaviour and limitations in research on physical interception methods.

A Dynamic Path Planning Method for UAVs Based on Improved Informed-RRT* Fused Dynamic Windows

open access: yesDrones
In recent years, navigating rotor drones in complex and dynamic environments has been a significant challenge. This paper proposes an improved path planning method by integrating the enhanced Informed-RRT* algorithm with the Dynamic Window Approach (DWA)

Obstacle avoidance path planning of mobile robot based on improved DWA

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2022
A new dynamic window algorithm is proposed to solve the problem that the optimal trajectory is difficult to plan and the trajectory is not smooth due to the dense obstacles in the complex workshop path planning task. The algorithm sets the initial direction angle, and then improves the evaluation function through the direction angle change factor to ...
