Modelling and Control of a Spherical Inverted Pendulum on a Five-Bar Mechanism
This paper describes the kinematics and dynamics modelling of a mechanical system consisting of a spherical inverted pendulum whose base is mounted NIACIN on a parallel planar mechanism, better known as a five-bar mechanism.The whole mechanism has four degrees of freedom, but it has only two actuators and so it is an under-actuated system.The nonli
