A survey of underactuated mechanical systems

Y Liu, H Yu - IET Control Theory & Applications, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
An underactuated mechanical system (UMS) is a system which has fewer independent
control actuators than degrees of freedom to be controlled. Control of UMS is considered as …

The swing up control problem for the acrobot

MW Spong - IEEE control systems magazine, 1995 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Underactuated mechanical systems are those possessing fewer actuators than degrees of
freedom. Examples of such systems abound, including flexible joint and flexible link robots …

Partial feedback linearization of underactuated mechanical systems

MW Spong - … of IEEE/RSJ International Conference on …, 1994 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
