A stable-control strategy for a planar three-link passive-active-active underactuated
mechanical system not subject to gravity constraints has been devised. The control objective …

This paper presents a position-posture control strategy based on genetic algorithm (GA) for
a planar four-link passive-active-active-active (PAAA) underactuated manipulator. The …

This paper presents a general control strategy based on the trajectory planning and tracking
control for the planar 3-DoF underactuated manipulators with one passive joint at different …

This paper studies the thrust vector control problem for an upper-stage rocket with fuel slosh
dynamics. The dynamics of a three-axis stabilized spacecraft with a single partially-filled fuel …

Control of planar underactuated manipulators (PUM) with unknown parameter perturbations
and external disturbances is still a challenging task due to their complex and peculiar …

This paper develops a quick and effective continuous state feedback control strategy based
on intelligent optimization for a planar three-link passive–active–active (PAA) underactuated …

ABSTRACT A stable control strategy is proposed via energy attenuation to realise the
position control for a second-order nonholonomic planar four-link active-passive-active …

A fully actuated system can execute any joint trajectory. However, if the system is
underactuated, not all joint trajectories are attainable. For such systems, it is difficult to …

This paper presents a position control strategy based on the differential evolution (DE)
algorithm for a planar four-link underactuated manipulator (PFUM) with a passive third joint …

In this paper, we develop a quick and effective position control strategy based on the
differential evolution (DE) algorithm for a planar three-link passive-active-active (PAA) …
