A basic problem in the control system theory is the mathematical modeling of a physical
system. The modeling of many systems calls for high-order dynamic equations. The …

This paper presents an intelligent-based control strategy for tip position tracking control of a
single-link flexible manipulator. Motivated by the well-known inverse dynamics control …

This paper presents simulation and experimental results on the performance of neural
network-based controllers for tip position tracking of flexible-link manipulators. The …

This paper presents an observer-based inverse dynamics control strategy that results in
small tip-position tracking errors while maintaining robust closed-loop performance for a …

In this paper, a nonlinear control strategy for tip position trajectory tracking of a class of
structurally flexible multilink manipulators is developed. Using the concept of integral …

Control of Flexible-link Manipulators Using Neural Networks addresses the difficulties that
arise in controlling the end-point of a manipulator that has a significant amount of structural …

This monograph is concerned with the development and implementation of nonlinear
mathematical techniques for feedback control and shape design of robot manipulators …

In this article it is shown how the end effector position of a single flexible-link robot can be
directly controlled by the angular position of its joint, so that, trajectory tracking in the end …

The hybrid control scheme is proposed to stabilize the vibration of a two-link flexible
manipulator while the robustness of Variable Structure Control (VSC) developed for rigid …

In this article, we present an inverse dynamics control strategy to achieve small tracking
errors for a class of multi‐link structurally flexible manipulators. This is done by defining new …
