Flexible dynamic modeling and control for the Remote Manipulator System
… model has six degree-of-freedom rigid dynamics, joint flexibility dynamics, link transverse elastic dynamics and torsional elastic dynamics. A computationally efficient control approach for addressing joint and boom flexibility of the RMS is investigated. The control strategy consists essentially …
