Abstract-- This paper is concerned with the theory of quasivelocities and its applications to control. The equations of motion of a mechanical system are derived using the Lagrange

The aim of this paper is twofold. On one hand we present an approach to the general problem of nonlinear control in the framework of (differentiable) groupoids, which, in our opin...
Abstract--A new image-based control strategy for visual servoing of a class of under-actuated rigid body systems is presented. The proposed control design applies to "eye-in-h...
— In this paper we address the problem of generating input plans to steer complex dynamical systems in an obstaclefree environment. Plans considered admit a finite description l...

This paper addresses the stabilization of a class of nonlinear systems in the presence of disturbances, using switching controllers. To this effect we introduce two new classes o...
