Stabilization of the Unicycle via Dynamic Feedback Linearization
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the feedback control problem for a wheeled mobile robot with the kinematics of a unicycle, a typical example of nonholonomic robotic system. It is shown that dynamic feedback linearization can be used to design a simple control law which is valid for trajectory tracking as well as point stabilization tasks. In particular, for both cases exponential convergence with linear transients in the cartesian space is obtained. Experimental results for a laboratory prototype prove the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Dynamic Load Carrying Capacity of Mobile-Base Flexible-Link Manipulators: Feedback Linearization Control Approach
This paper focuses on the effects of closed- control on the calculation of the dynamic load carrying capacity (DLCC) for mobile-base flexible-link manipulators. In previously proposed methods in the literature of DLCC calculation in flexible robots, an open-loop control scheme is assumed, whereas in reality, robot control is achieved via closed loop approaches which could render the calculated ...

متن کاملControl of nonholonomic systems via dynamic compensation
The problem of controlling nonholonomic systems via dynamic state feedback and its structural aspects are analyzed. Advantages and drawbacks with respect to the use of static state feedback laws are discussed. In particular, nonholonomic constraints are shown to yield possible singularities in the dynamic extension process. Nevertheless, these singularities can be avoided by the proper design o...

This paper works on the concept of flatness and its practical application for the design of an optimal transient controller in a synchronous machine. The feedback linearization scheme of interest requires the generation of a flat output from which the feedback control law can easily be designed. Thus the computation of the flat output for reduced order model of the synchronous machine with simp...
