In free-floating mode, space manipulator systems have their actuators turned off, and exhibit nonholonomic behavior due to angular momentum conservation. The system is underactua...
This paper investigates controllability of underactuated rolling systems consisting of a smooth object rolling on a moving smooth surface. Our system consists of a spherical ball ...
Abstract— Kinodynamic planning algorithms have the potential to find feasible control trajectories which accomplish a task even in very nonlinear or constrained dynamical system...
This paper studies motion planning from one zero velocity state to another for a three-joint robot in a horizontal plane witha passive revolute third joint. Such a robot is small-...
