This paper aims to propose a series of approaches to solve the problem of the mobile robot motion control and autonomous navigation in large-scale outdoor GPS-denied environments.

Based on the model of mobile robot with two driving wheels, a controller is designed and tested in obstacle-cluttered scenes in this paper. By using the priori “topology-geometry” map constructed based on the odometer data and the online matching algorithm of 3D-laser scanning points, a novel approach of outdoor localization with 3D-laser scanner is proposed to solve the problem of poor localization accuracy in GPS-denied environments. A path planning strategy based on geometric feature analysis and priority evaluation algorithm is also adopted to ensure the safety and reliability of mobile robot’s autonomous navigation and control.

A series of experiments are conducted with a self-designed mobile robot platform in large-scale outdoor environments, and the experimental results show the validity and effectiveness of the proposed approach.

The problem of motion control for a differential drive mobile robot is investigated in this paper first. At the same time, a novel approach of outdoor localization with 3D-laser scanner is proposed to solve the problem of poor localization accuracy in GPS-denied environments. A path planning strategy based on geometric feature analysis and priority evaluation algorithm is also adopted to ensure the safety and reliability of mobile robot’s autonomous navigation and control.

The paper aims to examine the similarities of fast‐growth private enterprises (PEs) in China with particular focus on enterprises listed on growth enterprises market in order to draw managerial implications for other PEs.

The paper looks at the release effects of intangible assets in PEs. It examines the excavation effects of preferential policy on PEs and goes on to discuss the agglomeration effects of the inherent advantages of these.

The paper argues that the fast growth of PEs in our sample was attributable to three main factors, i.e. benefits of intangible assets marketisation, shrewd use of government preferential policies and technological and managerial capabilities.

This research calls for the Chinese Government to adjust relevant policies to create a fair and competitive environment for enterprises with different ownerships and different scales.

The paper highlights the fact that the social and economic conditions of China in the post‐transition period have changed greatly and that the Chinese Government needs to clarify and define the existing characteristics and functions of enterprises and improve their service‐oriented functions.
