Abstract

This research deals with a study of tracking and vibration control of a functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced composite robotic arm which crosses pre-specified path. The Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and Lagrange-Rayleigh-Ritz technique are employed to derive the governing equations of CNTRC robotic arm. The robotic arm is subjected to a follower force; also, in order to control the vibration, the piezoelectric layers have been used beside the active control system. The robotic arm is simulated and the results show the effectiveness of the controller algorithm.
