Modeling, Identification and Control of Robots

By
  • W. Khalil, Professor at the Ecole Centrale, Nantes, France
  • E. Dombre, Head of the Robotics department at University of Montpelier, France

Written by two of Europe’s leading robotics experts, this book provides the tools for a unified approach to the modelling of robotic manipulators, whatever their mechanical structure. No other publication covers the three fundamental issues of robotics: modelling, identification and control. It covers the development of various mathematical models required for the control and simulation of robots.

Audience
Recommended as both a student text and a reference work for professional workers in robotics
