Systems with mechanical degrees of freedom containing unstable objects are analysed in this monograph and algorithms for their control are developed, discussed, and numerically tested. This is achieved by identifying unstable modes of motion and using all available resources to suppress them. By using this approach the region of states from which a stable regime can be reached is maximised.

The systems discussed in this book are models for pendula and vehicles and find applications in mechatronics, robotics as well as in mechanical and automotive engineering.

• Starting from a theoretical analysis control algorithms for a selection of unstable mechanical example systems are developed.
• Efficacy of these algorithms is analysed numerically as well as, for some examples, by experiment.
