Abstract

In this paper, the Trajectory Pattern Method (TPM) is utilized as a technique for synthesizing motion trajectories and generating inverse dynamics model based feedforward control signals for vibration free maneuvers of multi-link flexible manipulators. This technique is an application of our earlier paper, where the Trajectory Pattern Method (TPM) was introduced as an inversion technique for nonlinear (including non-minimum phase) control systems. Specifically, using this method, a stable inverse for the flexible manipulator dynamics is obtained. The efficacy of this scheme is illustrated through experimental results on a two-link flexible manipulator at the Control/Robotics Research Laboratory (CRRL).
