Abstract
This paper presents an adaptive control scheme for robot manipulators with flexible joints. Our control scheme theoretically guarantees that the tracking error converges to zero and that all the signals in the system remain bounded. We also analyze the robustness of the adaptive controller. To show the capability of the proposed controller, an exam ple of a one-link robot manipulator with one revolute flexible joint i s considered. The experimental results are given to demonstrate the ef fectiveness of this method.
