    An approach is given for the computation of smooth paths for a robot vehicle navigating from one location to a certain destination, where not only obstacles and free space have to be taken into account, but also uneven terrain on which the vehicle performance may vary with the slope and the ground texture. Robust solutions are obtained by using a viscous fluid equation including external forces. Two-dimensional examples are given.
