In this paper, a review of past and recent developments in the dynamics of flexible multibody
systems is presented. The objective is to review some of the basic approaches used in the …

In this paper a survey of the literature related to dynamic analyses of flexible robotic
manipulators has been carried out. Both link and joint flexibility are considered in this work …

Energy exchange is a major foundation of the dynamics of physical systems, and, hence, in
the study of complex multi-domain systems, methodologies that explicitly describe the …

The status and some recent developments in computational modeling of flexible multibody
systems are summarized. Discussion focuses on a number of aspects of flexible multibody …

The control of lightweight flexible manipulators is the focus of this work. Theflexible
manipulator dynamics is derived on the basis of a Lagrangian-assumed modes method. The …

This paper presents a survey in the field of two-link flexible manipulators (TLFMs). Two-link
flexible manipulators are more used in comparison with other types of flexible manipulators …

This paper presents a finite element/Lagrangian approach for the mathematical modeling of
lightweight flexible manipulators. Each link of the manipulator is treated as an assemblage …

This paper addresses control problems for flexible robot arms by using direct strain
feedback. The purpose is to make clear why direct strain feedback can damp out vibration of …

A structural finite‐element technique based on Bernoulli‐Euler beam theory is presented
which will permit the finding of the torques (or forces) that are necessary to apply at one end …

The design of high performance motion controls for industrial robots is based on accurate
models for the robot arm and drive systems. This paper presents analytical models and …
