The experience of the truck driver plays an important role, when it needs to handle the vehicle in complicate situations, for example, maneuvering through small and thick streets or with a lot of traffic movement. Therefore, the driver needs to be concerned about the variations in the environment and the physical limitations of the vehicle. The aim of this project is to design and implement a dynamic path planning method for a truck and trailer taking into account the obstacles of the environment (static and dynamics) and the physical limitations of the vehicle. As expected results, when the obstacles are not moved during the time, the algorithm should compute a static path which the vehicle would follow during the simulation time. However, while using dynamic obstacles objects which change the position and orientation through the time), the path planner will recalculate the trajectory in order to avoid the obstacles.
