Control of a Rigid Body Carrying an Oscillator under Incomplete Information

Resumo

A two-body system consisting of a rigid body with a linear oscillator attached to it is considered. The body moves along a horizontal line under the action of a control force and a small unknown disturbance. The phase state of the oscillator is assumed to be not available for measurement. A bounded feedback control is proposed which brings the body to a prescribed terminal state in a finite time.
