This paper proposes the application of a very low weight (3.2 kg) anthropomorphic dual-arm system capable rolling along linear infrastructures such as power lines to perform dexterous and bimanual manipulation tasks like installation clip-type bird flight diverters or conduct contact-based inspection operations on pipelines detect corrosion leaks. The kinematic configuration arms, with three jo...

In this paper, the State Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE) method is implemented on robotic systems such as a mobile two-links planar robot and a xed 6R manipulator with complicated dynamic equations. Dynamic modelings of both cases are presented using the Lagrange method. Afterwards, the Dynamic Load Carrying Capacity (DLCC), which is an important characteristic of robots, is calculated for th...

State-dependent Riccati equation (SDRE) methods for designing control algorithms and observers for nonlinear processes entail the use of algebraic Riccati equations. These methods have yielded a number of impressive results, however, they can be computationally quite intensive and thus far they have not yielded to those attempting to assess their stability. This paper explores an alternative, t...

The satellite attitude and orbit control system (AOCS) can be designed with success by linear theory if the has slow angular motions small maneuver. However, for large fast maneuvers, linearized models are not able to represent all perturbations due effects of nonlinear terms present in dynamics actuators (e.g., saturation). Therefore, such cases, it is expected that techniques yield better per...
