Proceedings of the AFOSR Forum on Space Structures (5th) Held in Monterey, California on August 20-21, 1987.

Abstract

The topics covered include modeling of spacecraft, wave propagation in large space structures, multiflexible body dynamic simulation, adaptive structures, electromechanical actuators for controlling flexible structures, system identification of suboptimal control parameters, integrated structural analysis and control, active control of elastic wave motion in structural networks, adaptive control of large space structures, analysis of performance degradation, optimal projection equations for fixed-order dynamic compensation, decentralized/relegated control for large space structures, Frobenius-Hankel norm framework for disturbance rejection and low order decentralized controller design, a method for truss structure vibration control, and robust eigenstructure assignment by a projection method. Keywords: Large space structures; Complex flexible structures; Modeling.
