Abstract :
A scheme is proposed for analyzing the global stability of robotic manipulators with a time-varying parameter model of the systems. The results establish the global stability of a class of manipulator control laws by means of a robust decentralized control method of time-varying interconnected systems. A novel Lyapunov function is used to demonstrate the stability of the time-varying robot systems. Under certain conditions on the magnitude of the nonlinear perturbed coupling terms, the perturbed robotic system can be shown to be globally asymptotically stable
