Planning routes for trucks with a trailer is a complex procedure. In order to simplify this process, a route is segmented into elementary components, which represents basic motions of the considered vehicle. These elementary components are called maneuvers and are composed of two party. First, paths are constructed for certain reference points. Second, the vehicle is enclosed by a corridor during the execution of a maneuver. The paths of the vehicle have to take driveability into consideration. They must respect the kinematic constraints of the vehicle. The maneuver corridor can be used as a basis to guarantee collision-free motion planing. No part of the vehicle leaves the corridor during the maneuver. There are different types of maneuvers. Currently, the bending maneuver, the cusp maneuver and the straight line maneuver can be distinguished. In addition, a maneuver can be created with two different construction methods, the conventional and the iterative method.
In this thesis, a data structure to construct a maneuver is designed and implemented. The data structure is integrated into an already existing tool. The user can interact with the software to adjust various parameters of a maneuver. Afterwards the maneuver is generated based on these parameters. This also includes a visualization within the software, which can plot the parts of a maneuver. The visualization can be exported to an image file.
