Abstract :
A second-order transfer function, which is parameterized by a 3D vector, is introduced to represent the dynamics corresponding to flexural effects. Therefore, high-dimensional, unstructured, uncertain dynamics is represented in a relatively low-order structured form. Based on this parameterization, a controller is designed. The advocated approach is applied to a slewing structure and is experimentally verified
