  • Dynamics of Underactuated Multibody Systems

    Modeling, Control and Optimal Design

    by Robert Seifried ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Underactuated multibody systems are intriguing mechatronic systems, as they posses fewer control inputs than degrees of freedom. Some examples are modern light-weight flexible robots and articulated manipulators with passive joints. This book investigates such underactuated multibody systems from an integrated perspective. This includes all major steps from the modeling of rigid and flexible ... Read more

  • Deformation Compatibility Control for Engineering Structures

    Methods and Applications

    by Mengchong Chen, Zhihui Zhou, Hanhua Zhu, Jianliang Deng ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book presents essential methods of deformation compatibility control, and explicitly addresses the implied conditions on the methods’ deformation compatibility. Consequently, these conditions can be considered in engineering structure design, while the conditions on stable equilibrium can be taken into account in the design method. Thus, the designed deformation and the actual deformation of ... Read more
