Boundary control of transverse motion of marine risers with actuator dynamics

This paper presents a boundary controller to reduce transverse motion of flexible marine risers driven by a hydraulic system at the top end of the risers under environmental disturbances induced by waves, wind, and ocean currents. The boundary controller is designed based on Lyapunov's direct m...
