The material in this book is presented in four distinct components:
Modeling approaches including classical techniques based on the Lagrange equation formulation, parametric approaches based on linear input/output models using system identification techniques and neuro-modeling approaches. Numerical modeling/simulation techniques for dynamic characterization of flexible manipulators using the finite difference, finite element, symbolic manipulation and customized software techniques. Open-loop and closed-loop control techniques based on classical and modern intelligent control methods including soft-computing and smart structures for flexible manipulators. Software environments for analysis, design, simulation and control of flexible manipulators.
