This article addresses a cooperative game-oriented optimal constraint-following problem for fuzzy mechanical systems. The state of the concerned system is affected by possibly (fast) time-varying uncertainty. The fuzzy set theory is adopted to describe such uncertainty. The task is to drive the system to obey a set of prescribed constraints optimally. Since the control objective may be changing along with the system uncertainty, a time-varying β-measure is defined to gauge the constraint-following error; based on which, an adaptive robust control scheme with two tunable parameters is then proposed to render it to be uniform boundedness and uniform ultimate boundedness. For the seeking of the optimal design parameters, two cost functions, each of which is dominated by one tunable parameter, are developed with the fuzzy information, and thereout a two-player cooperative game is formulated. Finally, the optimal design problem is successfully solved: with the existence, uniqueness, and analytical expression of the Pareto optimality.
