Source overview

Two Cartesian compliance laws address vibration and chatter during unexpected environmental contact. Publisher-deposited text describes Lyapunov stability analysis and comparative force-interaction experiments on a cable-actuated manipulator.

Use and review

Contact results apply to the described mechanism, controller and test conditions. They do not establish universal human injury thresholds or a certified protective function.
