Abstract :
This paper proposes an observer for a flexible two-link manipulator based on the nonlinear partial differential equation (PDE) dynamic model. The most attractive feature of this observer is that it can estimate the spatially distributed states based on only boundary measurements. The asymptotical stability of the proposed observer is validated by both theoretical analysis and simulation results.
