This paper investigates the singular perturbation (SP) theory-based composite learning
control of a flexible-link manipulator using neural networks (NNs) and disturbance observer …

This book is about nonlinear Eю-control theory, Hamiltonian systems, and Hamilton-Jacobi
equations. It is the culmination of one decade of the author's endeavors on the subject, and …

The problem of modeling and controlling the tip position of a one-link flexible manipulator is
considered. The proposed model has been used to investigate the effect of the open-loop …

This paper studies the control of a flexible‐link manipulator with uncertainty. The fast and
slow dynamics are derived based on the singular perturbation (SP) theory. The sliding mode …

This article develops the fundamentals of the tip position control of flexible single‐link robotic
manipulators in the frequency domain without approximating the model. Analytic transfer …

This paper proposes a new robust nonlinear H _ ∞ H∞ state feedback (NHSF) controller for
an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) in steering plane. A three-degree-of-freedom …

In this paper, we present an approach to the solution of the Hamilton–Jacobi–Isaacs
equation (HJIE) arising in the H∞ control problem for nonlinear systems. We show that the …

In this paper, we propose an iterative relaxation method for solving the Hamilton-Jacobi-
Bellman-Isaacs equation (HJBIE) arising in deterministic optimal control of affine nonlinear …

This paper studies the problems of tip position regulation and vibration suppression of
flexible manipulators without using the model. Because of the two‐timescale characteristics …

The paper is concerned with the control of the tip position of a single-link flexible
manipulator. The non-linear model of the manipulator is derived and tested, assuming the …
