Reducing transverse motion of marine risers with actuator dynamics by boundary control

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. The boundary controller is designed based on Lyapunov's direct method and the backstepping technique. Proof...
