โฆ Synopsis
The approach to the solution of stabilization problems for steady motions of holonomic mechanical systems [ 1,2] based on linear control theory, combined with the theory of critical cases of stability theory, is used to solve the analogous problems for nonholonomic systems. It is assumed that the control forces may affect both cyclic and positional coordinates, where the number r of independent control inputs may be considerably less than the number n of degrees of freedom of the system, unlike in many other studies (see, e.g., [3--5]), in which as a rule r = n. Several effective new criteria of controllability and observability are formulated, based on reducing the problem to a problem of less dimension. Stability analysis is carried out for the trivial solution of the complete non-linear system, closed by a selected control. This analysis is a necessary step in solving the stabilization problem for steady motion of a non-holonomic system (unlike holonomic systems), since in most cases such a system is not completely controllable.
