General Theory and Algorithms for the Non-Casual Inversion, Slewing and Control of Space-Based Articulated Structures

Abstract

The following final report describes the accomplishments obtained by the research team at UCSB sponsored by the Directorate of Aerospace Sciences of the AFOSR. The major accomplishments are the following: General Procedures for the Non-Causal Inverse Dynamics of Nonlinear Articulated Structures; Inverse Dynamics of Nonlinear Articulated Structures: Simultaneous Trajectory Tracking and Vibration Reduction; Buckling Control of a Flexible Beam Using Piezoelectric Actuators; Nonlinear Inversion-Based Regulation.
