— Tendon-based transmission systems present many positive aspects and greatly simplify the mechanical design of small robotic devices, such as robotic fingers. On the other hand...
This paper presents Lyapunov functions for proving stability of steady gliding motions for vehicles with hydrodynamic or aerodynamic forces and moments. Because of lifting forces ...
Abstract— This paper proposes a novel two-stage optimization method for robust Model Predictive Control (RMPC) with Gaussian disturbance and state estimation error. Since the dis...
Model predictive control (MPC) is of interest because it is one of the few control design methods which preserves standard design variables and yet handles constraints. MPC is nor...
Given a locally defined, nondifferentiable but Lipschitz Lyapunov function, we construct a (discontinuous) feedback law which stabilizes the underlying system to any given toleran...
