Flexible link manipulators are mostly prefered in applications where energy consumption
and faster operation are critically important. Since distributed nature of flexibility makes the …

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 …

This work treats the problem of dynamic modeling and state space approximation for robotic
manipulators with flexibility. Case studies are planar manipulators with a single flexible link …

This paper presents a comprehensive dynamic modeling of a flexible link manipulator by
using Hamilton's principle. The model is formulated by considering the flexible arm as a …

Modeling and vibration of a flexible link manipulator with tow flexible links and rigid joints
are investigated which can include an arbitrary number of flexible links. Hamilton principle …

The nonlinear dynamics of a flexible two link manipulator presents a challenging modeling
and control problem with its lumped actuator dynamics coupled with distributed link …

Abstract in italiano I manipolatori leggeri e flessibili hanno molti vantaggi rispetto ai
manipolatori più pesanti e rigidi come il minore consumo di energia, il maggiore rapporto tra …

A new controller for the end-effector trajectory tracking of a single flexible link manipulator is
introduced. The linear dynamic model of the single flexible link manipulator is expressed in …

This paper presents a strategy of model predictive control (MPC) for motion control of flexible-
link robot manipulators. The present development of the MPC algorithm concerns two major …

Flexible link manipulators (FLM) are well-known for their light mass and small energy
consumption compared to rigid link manipulators (RLM). These advantages of FLM are even …
