Chapter
The inverted pendulum is a classical problem in dynamics and control theory widely used as a fundamental system for testing emerging control algorithms. In spite of its very simple structure appropriate for developing real-time implementation, the inverted-pendulum model is considered the richest one amongcommonrobotic benchmarks. Not only, it can describe many engineering problems but also it can explain several biological examples. Various mathematical models and experimental designs for the inverted pendulum exist offering an attractive tool for education and research. The objective of this survey is to present an overview of the available varieties of such system, highlighting the richness of its dynamics and then providing an overall picture of different control design approaches and trendy robotic problems related to its simple structure. In total, 300 references in the open literature, dating back to Galileo’s first experiments written in 1602, are compiled to provide an overall picture of historical, current and challenging developments based on the stabilization principle of the inverted pendulum.

Conference Paper
Underactuated systems are mechanical systems with fewer actuators than the system degrees of freedom, i.e., some degrees of freedom are not directly driven by actuators. Many benchmark underactuated systems have been developed to study the nature of underactuated dynamics and their possible controller designs. Unlike fully actuated systems where many control strategies are available for an entire class of systems, there are few results applicable to even a small class of underactuated mechanical systems. In this paper, an Adaptive Fuzzy Sliding Mode Controller (AFSMC) is proposed in order to stabilize an inverted pendulum mounted on a ball system, also known as ballbot; this latter an interesting underactuated mechanical system for which the controller designs are a pending task, i.e. the performance for different control strategies could be explored. The performance of our proposal is verified via numerical simulation, showing the robustness against time-varying uncertainties and disturbances.
