In this paper, we try to draw attention to a particular type of force that has been somehow overlooked in the control of mechanical manipulators: gyroscopic force. At first, we broaden our understanding of gyroscopic effect intrinsic in mechanical systems by reformulating the Euler-Lagrange (EL) equation in terms of a gyroscopic part and the non-gyroscopic ones (or Rayleigh type). Then, we propose...
Mechanical systems can be asymptotically stabilized without velocity measurements by applying a dynamic extension. By interconnecting the system with a (virtual) controller damping is indirectly injected into the system making velocity measurements unnecessary, provided that this damping propagates to the mechanical system. The approach has been shown for the case of potential energy shaping and for...
