Abstract :
This communication deals With the problem of flatness in a nonlinear multi-input (m inputs) system. In the framework of differential algebra, the tangent system is used in order to find out the mth flat output when m-1 flat outputs have been guessed. The quotient of modules has appeared to be a cornerstone in this procedure
