Abstract
In this paper, a method is proposed whereby both contact force exerted by a flexible manipulator and position of end-effector while in conta ct with a surface are controlled. We derive dynamic equations of joint angles, vibrations of flexible links, and contact force by means of H amilton's principle. On the basis of some assumptions we derive the qu asi-static equations and design the hybrid position/force controller o f the flexible manipulator. A set of experiments for the hybrid contro l of the flexible manipulator using a force sensor has been carried ou t. Several experimental results are shown.
