Causal approximations to the inverse dynamics of structurally flexible robots

Robotic manipulators have been extensively used in industrial automation, hazardous environments and outer space. The requirement for increased speeds of operation and lightweight design has made structural flexibility the constraining factor in robot design. For current manipulators that exhibit s...
