Abstract:A device laboratory was designed to create a commanded disturbance to the Furuta inverted pendulum. This pendulum was modified by adding a second inverted pendulum coupled to the main one by means of a semi-rigid spring. The induced motion on the second inverted pendulum causes displacement of the center of mass of the system, producing a kind of perturbation similar to that presented on mobile inverted pendulum transportation units. A linear matrix inequality (LMI) controller is designed from the unperturbed … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
