Tracking control of mechanical systems with impacts

2012 American Control Conference (ACC), 2012
In this paper controllers are designed such that the state trajectories of mechanical systems with impacts converge to a reference trajectory that contains impacts. The impact times of the plant will typically not coincide with those of the reference, such that the Euclidean tracking error intrinsically behaves in an unstable manner.

Mechanical linearization of mechanical control systems without controllability assumption

Automatica, 2023
In this paper, the authors investigate on mechanical linearization of mechanical control systems without controllability assumption. More precisely, they present a linearization procedure of mechanical control systems that preserves the mechanical structure of the system, i.e., the mechanical linearization.

Mechanical Control Systems and Kinematic Systems

IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2008
The aim of this technical note is to analyze the equivalence between the second-order equations describing the dynamics of mechanical systems, and the associated kinematic system when dealing with nonholonomic systems with controls. If the system is fully actuated, both systems are equivalent.

Equivariants of Mechanical Control Systems

SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2013
In this paper we find a complete set of equivariants of mechanical control systems that satisfy the geodesic accessibility property. These equivariants are structure functions on the configuration manifold and are used to completely characterize the mechanical state equivalence of two mechanical control systems.

Configuration Controllability of Mechanical Systems Underactuated by One Control

SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2003
The paper contains a detailed study of local configuration controllability for mechanical control systems within the affine (or linear) connection formalism. An extension of some previous results of \textit{A. W. Lewis} [Rep. Math. Phys. 42, No. 1--2, 135--164 (1998; Zbl 0976.53015)] for single-input case yields an useful characterization of local ...
