Robust Control of Robots: Fault Tolerant Approaches

Robust Control of Robots bridges the gap between robust control theory and applications, with a special focus on robotic manipulators. It is divided into three parts:

• robust control of regular, fully-actuated robotic manipulators;
• robust post-failure control of robotic manipulators; and
• robust control of cooperative robotic manipulators.

In each chapter the mathematical concepts are illustrated with experimental results obtained with a two-manipulator system. They are presented in enough de...
