Abstract :
In this paper, we develop a formulation pertaining to the phenomena involved in robotic interception of a moving rigid body, when structural flexibility is taken into consideration. Generalized impulse-momentum equations describing the dynamics of interception are developed, using the impulsive form of Jourdain´s principle. To evaluate the performance of the interception, a geometric interpretation is proposed; and the first and second dynamic interception ellipsoids and related measures are introduced
