In Control System Theory, the study of continuous-time, finite dimensional, underdetermined systems of ordinary differential equations is an important topic. Classification of systems in different categories is a natural initial step to the analysis of a g ...
A class of nonlinear systems and a filtration of the corresponding codistributions are presented. The filtration enjoys some strong integrability property which allows an easy computation of a linearizing normal form whenever the algorithm terminates with ...
A modeling framework is proposed for the control of rigid and flexible cable-like systems such as cranes, together with a systematic algorithm for computing flat outputs of mechanical systems for which the flat output is a linear combination of the free co ...
