Geometric Control of Mechanical Systems: Modeling, Analysis, and Design for Simple Mechanical Control Systems

by Andrew D. Lewis and Francesco Bullo

Book Overview

The primary emphasis of this book is the modeling, analysis, and control of mechanical systems. The methods and results presented can be applied to a large class of mechanical control systems, including applications in robotics, autonomous vehicle control, and multi-body systems. The book is unique in that it presents a unified, rather than an inclusive, treatment of control theory for mechanical systems. A distinctive feature of the presentation...
