Rigid Body Dynamics Algorithms

TL;DR: Rigid Body Dynamics Algorithms presents the subject of computational rigid-body dynamics through the medium of spatial 6D vector notation to facilitate the implementation of dynamics algorithms on a computer: shorter, simpler code that is easier to write, understand and debug, with no loss of efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

A robotics toolbox for MATLAB

TL;DR: The Robotics Toolbox is a software package that allows a MATLAB user to readily create and manipulate datatypes fundamental to robotics such as homogeneous transformations, quaternions and trajectories.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic interactions between limb segments during planar arm movement

TL;DR: The significance of the individual interaction forces during reaching movements in a horizontal plane involving only the shoulder and elbow joints has been assessed and trajectory formation strategies which simplify the dynamics computation are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recursive Lagrangian Dynamics of Flexible Manipulator Arms

TL;DR: In this article, nonlinear equations of motion are developed for flexible manipulator arms consisting of rotary joints that connect pairs of flexible links and the link deflection is assumed small so that the link transformation can be composed of summations of assumed link shapes.

The Robust Control of Robot Manipulators

TL;DR: The methodology is compared with standard algorithms such as the computed torque method and is shown to combine in practice improved performance with simpler and more tractable controller designs.
