Abstract

From the Publisher:This book deals with the application of modern control theory to some important underactuated mechanical systems. It presents modelling and control of the following systems:||- the inverted pendulum||- a convey-crane system||- the pendubot system||- the Furuta pendulum||- the inertia wheel pendulum||- the planar flexible-joint robot||- the planar manipulator with two prismatic and one revolute joints||- the ball & beam system||- the hovercraft model||- the planar vertical and take-off landing (PVTOL) aircraft||- the helicopter model on a platform||- the helicopter model||In every case the model is obtained in detail using either the Euler-Lagrange formulation or the Newton's second law. We develop control algorithms for every particular system using techniques such as passivity, energy-based Lyapunov functions, forwarding, backstepping or feedback linearization techniques.||This book will be of great value for PhD students and researchers in the areas of non-linear control systems.
