Asymptotic stabilisation of the ball and beam system: design of energy-based control law and experimental results. (English) Zbl 1222.93197

Summary: We present a new nonlinear control law to stabilise the ball and beam system at a desired operating point. The control law is based on the Interconnection and Damping Assignment-Passivity-Based Control (IDA-PBC) methodology developed in [R. Ortega, M. Spong, F. Gomez-Estern and G. Blankenstien, ‘Stabilization of underactuated mechanical systems via interconnection and damping assignment’, IEEE Transactions Automatic Control 47, 1218–1233 (2002)] that guarantees stability in the sense of Lyapunov. We present a novel proof of the asymptotic stability of the desired operating point. The validity of the proposed control law is demonstrated through the experimental results.
