Active force control of an nonholonomic wheeled mobile robot

A method to improve the stability and robustness of a nonholonomic wheeled mobile robot (WMR) using an Active Force Control (AFC) method was presented through a simulation and experimental study. The AFC strategy is a robust approach to the control of dynamical systems that involves approximating th...
