TLDR
In this paper, the point-to-point control of a manipulator with three revolute elastic joints is considered and it is shown that a simple PD controller, similar to that used for rigid robots, suffices to globally stabilize the elastic joint robots about a reference position.
Abstract
The point-to-point control of manipulators having elastic joints is considered. It is shown that a simple PD (proportional plus derivative) controller, similar to that used for rigid robots, suffices to globally stabilize the elastic joint robots about a reference position. A robustness analysis is also given with respect to uncertainties on the robot parameters. The results of numerical simulation tests of a manipulator with three revolute elastic joints are presented. >

TL;DR: The open-loop resonant frequency characteristic of the flexible joint is employed to identify the proper mechanical parameters of the two-inertia model and the accuracy improvement of the proposed robust control scheme based on feedforward inverse dynamic compensation and D-PD position control gives support to the validity of this novel identification method.
