A survey of underactuated mechanical systems

Underactuated Mechanical Systems

In this paper we discuss the control of underactuated mechanical systems. Underactuated mechanical systems have fewer control inputs than degrees of freedom and arise in applications, such as space and undersea robots, mobile robots, exible robots, walking, brachiating, and gymnastic robots. The Lagrangian dynamics of these systems may contain feedforward nonlinearities, non-minimum phase zero ...

Control of underactuated mechanical systems

In this report, different control techniques for underactuated systems are considered. Underactuated systems are systems that have more degrees of freedom to be controlled than independent control inputs. Several control-techniques are considered for the point-to-point control of underactuated mechanical systems. After that, a control technique is considered for tracking control of underactuate...
