Authors: Dipendra Subedi, Ilya Tyapin and Geir Hovland,Affiliation: University of Agder
Reference: 2020, Vol 41, No 3, pp. 141-163.
Keywords: Flexible link manipulator, dynamic modeling, vibrations, control, elasticity, flexibility, deflection
Abstract: This paper presents a review of dynamic modeling techniques and various control schemes to control flexible link manipulators (FLMs) that were studied in recent literature. The advantages and complexities associated with the FLMs are discussed briefly. A survey of the reported studies is carried out based on the method used for modeling link flexibility and obtaining equations of motion of the FLMs. The control techniques are reviewed by classifying them into two main categories: model-based and model-free control schemes. The merits and limitations of different modeling and control methods are highlighted.
