Lecture: Inverted Pendulum on a Cart (ME 564)

Professor

15:08·2017·graduate level

This lecture introduces the inverted pendulum on a cart as a control system example. It covers state-space representation, fixed point analysis, and Matlab simulation, laying the groundwork for feedback control design.

In this video, we introduce an example system to control: an inverted pendulum on a cart. We describe the state-space, find the fixed points, and simulate the system in Matlab. Because the linearized system is controllable, we will be able to arbitrarily place the eigenvalues of the closed-loop system through feedback in the next two videos.

These lectures follow Chapter 8 from:

"Data-Driven Science and Engineering: Machine Learning, Dynamical Systems, and Control" by Brunton and Kutz
