Stabilization of relative equilibria for underactuated systems on Riemannian manifolds.

In this talk, I'll introduce a systematic procedure to asymptotically stabilize relative equilibria of mechanical systems after the paper "F.Bullo .[2000] Stabilization of relative equilibria for underactuated systems on Riemannian manifolds, Automatica. The Journal of IFAC, 36(12),1819-1834." In the procedure, potential shaping and dissipative control are employed. To obtain full asymptotical stabilization of the desired trajectory, we need two conditions that the effective potential be positive definite over a specified subspace and that the system be linearly controllable.
