  • Abstract
    The focus of this paper is to investigate the feasibility of stabilizing an underactuated double inverted pendulum. This preliminary investigation is motivated by the desire to construct a two-legged walking robot. The pendulum represents a single leg in a walking robot. The design of a stabilizing controller using a μ-synthesis approach is explained in detail and conditions for controllability and observability of the system are given
