The impact response of a two-link rigid-flexible manipulator is studied. A spring-dashpot model, which is based on the Hertzian contact law and non-linear damping, is used for impact modelling. Simulations have shown that the flexibility reduces the severity of the impact. The same impact conditions

✦ Synopsis
Control of a two-link rigid}#exible manipulator carrying a moving payload mass is considered. The stability of the system when the payload mass is moving along the #exible link during the time of maneuver is investigated. A candidate Lyapunov function is constructed and its time rate of change is examined. It is shown that the use of an independent PD-type controller yields a convergence of residual vibration to zero, an attainment of the rigid-body rotations to their prespeci"ed desired angles of maneuver, and an axial guidance of the payload mass. It is shown that allowing the relative motion of the payload mass, as it moves along the #exible link, leads to a considerable reduction of its residual vibrations as compared with the case when it is "xed to the link tip during the time of maneuver. The performance of the proposed controller is also veri"ed in case the links and the payload mass are required to track prespeci"ed reference trajectories.

In this paper, the equations of motion for a non-linearly constrained flexible manipulator with a tip mass are derived by using Hamilton's principle. Dynamic formulation is based on expressing the kinetic and potential energies of the manipulator system in terms of generalized co-ordinates. Four dyn
Space structures such as the solar panels or antenna, when deployed in space, have large dimensions, low mass to size ratio, large inertias and relatively low structural rigidity. Due to space restrictions, these structures are originally in stowed configurations and are deployed into their full siz
