Abstract
We design a controller for the beam-and-ball system that renders the origin semiglobally asymptotically stable (semi-GAS). First, we view the problem as designing a controller for a second-order subsystem of the system. Then, using a new backstepping procedure we reconstruct the control for the whole system. As our main result, we developed a new version of backstepping procedure for systems that do not have a triangular structure
