Abstract

The authors formulate the dynamic equations of a system consisting of a 3-degree-of-freedom Puma-like manipulator attached to a space platform (e.g. a space station or a satellite) as an NMP (nonholonomic motion planning) problem and discuss controllability of the system. They describe the application of a simple algorithm for obtaining approximate optimal solutions. They conclude with results of a simulation experiment.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
