Recursive linearization of multibody dynamics equations of motion [PDF]
The equations of motion of a multibody system are nonlinear in nature, and thus pose a difficult problem in linear control design. One approach is to have a first-order approximation through the numerical perturbations at a given configuration, and to ...
