Abstract
A mechanical system is required to obey a set of constraints. The tools to accomplish this performance requirement are a set of servo controls1 that is, the servo controls are to generate the appropriate constraint force. In this article, the servo control design problem for constraint-following is thoroughly discussed. The problem is formulated as an algebraic setting in which a second order constraint is adopted. The control is a solution to the problem, whose projection to a subspace is used to ensure conformation to the constraint. The complete solution to this problem is provided in analytical form. It is shown that the environmentally constrained system simply adopts the minimum form of the complete solution. The setting presented here helps to broaden the scope of traditional Lagrangian mechanics.

Adaptive robust control for dual avoidance–arrival performance for uncertain mechanical systems

TL;DR: It is proved that, with the proposed control input, the avoidance constraint is completely followed and the arrival constraint is closely followed; hence, the dual avoidance–arrival problem is carried out.

Robust and Optimal Control

TL;DR: This paper reviewed the history of the relationship between robust control and optimal control and H-infinity theory and concluded that robust control has become thoroughly mainstream, and robust control methods permeate robust control theory.

Stabilization of constraints and integrals of motion in dynamical systems

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown how the analytical relations can be satisfied in a stabilized manner in order to improve the numerical accuracy of the solution of the differential equations, which leads to a modified differential system which is often stable in the sense of Ljapunov.
