This article presents a novel adaptive composite learning (ACL) control strategy combining reinforcement learning and a disturbance observer (DOB) to address vibration issues in a flexible two‐link manipulator (FTLM) system affected by unknown spatiotemporally varying disturbances. Based on the assumed mode method, the FTLM system is initially transformed into an ordinary differential equation model, while effectively capturing the elastic deformation and vibration characteristics of the flexible link. A composite learning controller, based on the actor‐critic algorithm and DOB, is then developed to achieve trajectory tracking and vibration suppression in the FTLM system. The DOB in the controller compensates for unknown disturbances resulting in reduced system error. It is noting that the proposed optimal control strategy is continuously gathering system experience and evaluating the current policy's …
