Abstract

This paper presents a new control strategy for an underactuated two-link robot, called the Pendubot. The goal is to create stable oscillations of the outer link of the pendubot, which is not directly actuated. We exploit a recently proposed feedback control design strategy, based on motion planning via virtual holonomic constraints. This strategy is shown to be useful for design of regulators for achieving: stable oscillatory motions, a closed-loop-design-based swing-up, and propeller motions.
