Dynamics and control of underactuated systems with applications in robotics / Ahmad Azlan Mat Isa … [et al.]

Underactuated systems are mechanical control systems with fewer controls than the number of configuration variables. Control of underactuated systems is currently an active field of research due to their broad applications in Robotics, Aerospace Vehicles, and Marine Vehicles. The goal to study is to...
