A neural network-based controller for a single-link flexible manipulator using the inverse dynamics approach

This thesis presents an intelligent strategy for controlling the tip position of a flexible-link manipulator. Motivated by the well-known inverse dynamics control approach for rigid-link manipulators, two multi-layer feedforward neural networks are developed to learn the nonlinearities of the system...
