Vehicle-Manipulator Systems: Modeling for Simulation, Analysis, and Control

by Kristin Ytterstad Pettersen, Jan Tommy Gravdahl, Pål Johan From, et al.

Furthering the aim of reducing human exposure to hazardous environments, this monograph presents a detailed study of the modeling and control of vehicle-manipulator systems. The text shows how complex interactions can be performed at remote locations using systems that combine the manipulability of robotic manipulators with the ability of mobile robots to locomote over large areas.

The first part studies the kinematics and dynamics of rigid...
