A two-arm flexible space manipulator system for post-grasping manipulation operations of a passive target object

Space Manipulator Systems (SMSs) are complex systems made of a platform equipped with one or more deployable robotic arms and they will be playing a major role in future autonomous on-orbit missions. The latter may as well involve manipulation operations of the target object which needs to be moved from an initial configuration to a final one suitable for the specific task under consideration. In the present study, the mission being analyzed...
