Overview : We developed a rigorous analytical framework for the optimal control of wheeled mobile robots, deriving closed-form solutions using Jacobi elliptic functions. The first result establishes energy-optimal motion for the unicycle model, while the second extends the framework to balance both energy and time. Together, these contributions offer fundamental insights into the trade-offs that shape efficient robot motion planning.
