ACOSS Six (Active Control of Space Structures)

Abstract

The theoretical research documented in this report addresses control law design methodologies relevant to control of large space structures. Emphasis is on model reduction, design methods for determining reduced-order compensators, and criteria for determining overall closed-loop system stability. A simple but realistic evaluation model (Draper Model no. 2) is presented which will be used to assess performance and sensitivity of the various active structural control methods.
