Abstract :
The structure of the kinematic and dynamic models of wheeled mobile robots is analyzed. It is shown that, for a large class of possible configurations, they can be classified into five types, characterized by the generic structures of the model equations. For each class, problems of irreducibility of the model, configuration of the motorization and feedback equivalence are addressed
