Modelling and active vibration control of flexible manipulator structure

The purpose of this study is to investigate the application of different system identification techniques such as least square (LS), recursive least square (RLS) and neural network (NN) to identify the system model of a flexible manipulator structure and design a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PI...
