First International Conference on Innovative Computing, Information and Control - Volume II (ICICIC'06) Optimal Control of Nonholonomic Motion Planning for a Free-Falling Cat Beijing, China August 30-September 01 ISBN: 0-7695-2616-0
The nonholonomic motion planning of a free-falling cat is investigated. Nonholonomicity arises in a freefalling cat subject to nonintegrable angle velocity constraints or nonintegrable conservation laws. When the total angular momentum is zero, the motion equation of a free-falling cat is established based on the model of two symmetric rigid bodies and conservation of angular momentum. The control of system can be converted to the problem of nonholonomic motion planning for a free-falling cat. Based on Ritz approximation theory, the Gauss- Newton method for motion planning by a falling cat is proposed. The effectiveness of the numerical algorithm is demonstrated through simulation on model of a falling cat.
