Abstract :
Acceleration profiles are developed for a two-link flexible-joint robot. These profiles generate point-to-point motion without residual vibration The command signals are derived using a minimum-energy performance index and solving the corresponding two-point boundary-value problem. By considering the full nonlinear dynamic model, this method determines input profiles that ensure minimum vibration when natural frequencies vary during the move.
