Lyapunov-Based PD Linear Control of the Oscillatory Behavior of a Nonlinear Mechanical System: The Inverted Physical Pendulum with Moving Mass Case

This paper concerns active vibration damping of a frictionless physical inverted pendulum with a radially moving mass. The motion of the inverted pendulum is restricted to an admissible set. The proposed Proportional Derivative linear controller damps the inverted pendulum (which is anchored by a to...
