In this chapter, we introduce the concepts of statics and dynamics for robots. These are advanced topics and are not strictly necessary for most practical applications, but it is good to have at least an idea of what they are and what advantage they can add to a robotics control system.

Statics

Statics is the branch of physics that deals with forces. So far in this book, we have learned how to control the position and speed of a robot, because that is what the majority of typical industrial ...
