Abstract :
A new notion of differential flatness of infinite order is used to approximately regulate, along an off-line prescribed oscillatory trajectory, a mechanical system, which is nonlinear in the control input, it is not feedback linearizable by means of dynamical, or static, state feedback, and it is also non-minimum phase
