However, more reliable path planning algorithms are required until full autonomous UAV operation is possible. This work investigates the algorithm 3DVFH* and analyses its dependency on its cost function weights in 2400 environments. The analysis shows that the 3DVFH* can find a suitable path in every environment. However, a particular type of environment requires a specific choice of cost function weights. For minimal failure, probability interdependencies between the weights of the cost function have to be considered. This dependency reduces the number of control parameters and simplifies the usage of the 3DVFH*. Weights for costs associated with vertical evasion (pitch cost) and vicinity to obstacles (obstacle cost) have the highest influence on the failure probability of the local path planner. Environments with mainly very tall buildings (like large American city centres) require a preference for horizontal avoidance manoeuvres (achieved with high pitch cost weights). In contrast, environments with medium-to-low buildings (like European city centres) benefit from vertical avoidance manoeuvres (achieved with low pitch cost weights). The cost of the vicinity to obstacles also plays an essential role and must be chosen adequately for the environment. Choosing these two weights ideal is sufficient to reduce the failure probability below 10\%.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KuhlmannButenwegLopezetal.2004, author = {Kuhlmann, Wolfram and Butenweg, Christoph and Lopez, Marijen and Fernandez, Sebastian}, title = {Seismic vulnerability assessment of the historic Aachen Cathedral}, series = {Conference proceedings / 13th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering [Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, August 1 - 6, 2004] / [hosted by CAEE/ACGP, Canadian Association for Earthquake Engineering]}, booktitle = {Conference proceedings / 13th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering [Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, August 1 - 6, 2004] / [hosted by CAEE/ACGP, Canadian Association for Earthquake Engineering]}, publisher = {CAEE}, address = {Vancouver}, organization = {World Conference on Earthquake Engineering <13, 2004, Vancouver>}, pages = {1 -- 14}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KuhlmannButenwegBettziecheetal.2004, author = {Kuhlmann, Wolfram and Butenweg, Christoph and Bettzieche, Volker and Meskouris, Konstantin}, title = {Experimentelle und numerische Untersuchungen zur baudynamischen Beurteilung von Talsperren des Ruhrverbandes}, series = {13.
