Control of underactuated mechanical systems: Observer design and position feedback stabilization
We identify a class of mechanical systems for which a globally exponentially stable reduced order observer can be designed. The class is characterized by (the solvability of) a set...

Second-Order Analysis of Polyhedral Systems in Finite and Infinite Dimensions with Applications to Robust Stability of Variation
Abstract. This paper concerns second-order analysis for a remarkable class of variational systems in finite-dimensional and infinite-dimensional spaces, which is particularly imp...

On the Stabilization of Persistently Excited Linear Systems
We consider control systems of the type ˙x = Ax+α(t)bu, where u ∈ R, (A, b) is a controllable pair and α is an unknown time-varying signal with values in [0, 1] satisfying a ...

How springs can help to stabilize motions of underactuated systems with weak actuators
In the field of robotics the energy spent for actuation is always an issue. It is often the case that some desired motions cannot be achieved by the robot due to limitations in act...

An elementary result in the stability theory of time-invariant nonlinear discrete dynamical systems
The stability of the equilibria of time-invariant nonlinear dynamical systems with discrete time scale is investigated. We present an elementary proof showing that in the case of ...
