On the uncontrollable damped triple Inverted pendulum. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Woodham, C. A., & Su, H. (2000, September). On the uncontrollable damped triple Inverted pendulum. Presented at UKACC Control Conference

The balancing of an inverted pendulum is a classic control problem of some thirty years or so standing, which
has been revisited of late in the light of recent developments in symbolic computation. The controllability of the
damped double inverted... Read More about On the uncontrollable damped triple Inverted pendulum..
