Motion Control Systems is concerned with design methods thatsupport the never-ending requirements for faster and more accuratecontrol of mechanical motion. The book presents material that isfundamental, yet at the same time discusses the solution of complexproblems in motion control systems. Methods presented in the bookare based on the authors' original research results. Mathematicalcomplexities are kept to a required minimum so that practicingengineers as well as students with a limited background in controlmay use the book. It is unique in presenting know-how accumulatedthrough work on very diverse problems into a comprehensive unifiedapproach suitable for application in high demanding, high-techproducts. Major issues covered include motion control ranging fromsimple trajectory tracking and force control, to topics related tohaptics, bilateral control with and without delay in measurementand control channels, as well as control of nonredundant andredundant multibody systems.
