Stabilisation and Motion Control of Unstable Objects


Add your own review!

Overview

Systems with mechanical degrees of freedom containing unstable objects are analysed in this monograph and algorithms for their control are developed, discussed, and numerically tested. This is achieved by identifying unstable modes of motion and using all available resources to suppress them. By using this approach the region of states from which a stable regime can be reached is maximised. The systems discussed in this book are models for pendula and vehicles and find applications in mechatronics, robotics as well as in mechanical and automotive engineering.

Reviews

The book can serve as an excellent basis for a graduate course on control and stabilization of multi-body mechanical systems. It provides a researcher with a comprehensive account of approaches and methods of designing controls stabilizing unstable equilibria. It will be a valuable reference to the classical and modern literature on the subject. Oleg N. Kirillov in: Mathematical Reviews Clippings, July 2018, MR3726859
