This paper proposes a saturated smooth adaptive controller for regulating a certain type of underactuated Euler-Lagrange systems (UELSs) with modeling uncertainties and control saturations based on a singular perturbation approach. Compared with relevent literature, the advantages of the proposed controller include: (1) it renders the UELS semiglobally asymptotically track the desired position without the violation of control input constraints; (2) high-order derivatives of positions are not required in its implementation. The Hoppensteadt's Theorem is employed to show that the proposed saturated controller renders the UELS semiglobally asymptotically stable about the desired set point with the satisfaction of control input constraints. The control effectiveness is validated by simulations on a two-link compliant robot arm.

Accurate trajectory tracking is a critical property of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) due to system nonlinearities, under-actuated properties and constraints. Specifically, the use of unmanned rotorcrafts with accuracy trajectory tracking controllers in dynamic environments has the potential to improve the fields of environment monitoring, safety, search and rescue, border surveillance, geology and mining, agriculture industry, and traffic control. Monitoring operations in dynamic environments produce significant complications with respect to accuracy and obstacles in the surrounding environment and, in many cases, it is difficult to perform even with state-of-the-art controllers.

The paper presents a distributed finite-time controller for multiple under-actuated spacecraft with flexible appendages to track a virtual leader with stationary states under an undirected communication graph. Each spacecraft of concern is simplified as a free-floating hub-beam system, which is an under-actuated Euler-Lagrange system by nature since only the hub is driven. In the undirected communication graph, it is assumed that only one spacecraft can receive the information from the virtual leader.

This paper presents the problem of safe and fast transportation of packages by an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) kind quadrotor. A mathematical model and a control strategy for a special class of underactuated mechanical systems, composed of a quadrotor transporting a cable-suspended payload, are proposed. The Euler-Lagrange formulation is used to obtain the dynamic model of the system, where the integrated dynamics of the quadrotor, cable and payload are considered.

The antiswing control and accurate positioning are simultaneously investigated for underactuated crane systems in the presence of two parallel payloads on the trolley and rail length limitation. The equations of motion for the crane system in question are established via the Euler-Lagrange equation. An adaptive control strategy is proposed with the help of system energy function and energy shaping technique.
