Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Conference Paper Description
This paper addresses the problem of energy-optimal waypoint-following guidance for an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle with the consideration of arbitrary number of obstacles. The proposed guidance law is derived as a solution of a linear quadratic optimal control problem in conjunction with convex parameter optimization. The algorithm developed integrates path following and obstacle avoidance into a single step and is able to be applied to a general waypoint-following mission. Several particular cases of the proposed guidance law are presented to provide better insights of the proposed algorithm. Nonlinear numerical simulations clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed formulations.
