Fundamentals in Modeling and Control of Mobile Manipulators

<p>Drawing on the authors' research this book presents theoretical explorations of several fundamental problems for mobile robotic manipulators. By integrating fresh concepts and state-of-the-art results to form a systematic approach for kinematics dynamics motion generation feedback control coordination and cooperation the book forms a basic theoretical framework for mobile robotic manipulators that extends the theory of nonlinear control and applies to more realistic problems. The authors propose novel control theory concepts and techniques to tackle important issues faced by researchers and engineers.</p>
