Dipole-like fields for stabilization of systems with Pfaffian constraints
This paper introduces a framework that guides the design of stabilizing feedback control laws for systems with Pfaffian constraints. A new class of N-dimensional vector fields, the...

A riemannian-geometry approach for dynamics and control of object manipulation under constraints
A Riemannian-geometry approach for control and stabilization of dynamics of object manipulation under holonomic or non-holonomic (but Pfaffian) constraints is presented. First, pos...

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...

Local stability analysis using simulations and sum-of-squares programming
The problem of computing bounds on the region-of-attraction for systems with polynomial vector fields is considered. Invariant subsets of the region-of-attraction are characterize...

Direct Adaptive Fuzzy Control with Less Restrictions on the Control Gain
: In the adaptive fuzzy control field for affine nonlinear systems, there are two basic configurations: direct and indirect. It is well known that the direct configuration needs mo...
