Book An Integrated  Optimization Based Approach to the Design and Control of Large Space Structures

Download or read book An Integrated Optimization Based Approach to the Design and Control of Large Space Structures written by Elijah Polak and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research was aimed at laying the groundwork for a long term project on the integrated, optimization-based design of large, flexible structures and their control systems. Research was carried out in four areas: (1) modeling the dynamic behavior of simple flexible structures; (2) development of a theory of nondifferentiable optimization algorithms for the solution of problems with max function type inequality constraints; (3) exploraton of the use of optimization in optimization-based design of large, flexible structures and their control systems; and (4) interactive software for optimization-based control system design.

Book Large Space Structures  Dynamics and Control

Download or read book Large Space Structures Dynamics and Control written by S.N. Atluri and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is intended to provide a snapshot of the status and opportunities for advan cement in the technologies of dynamics and control oflarge flexible spacecraft structures. It is a reflection ofthe serious dialog and assessments going on all over the world,across a wide variety of scientific and technical disciplines, as we contemplate the next major milestone in mankind's romance with space: the transition from exploration and experimentation to commercial and defense exploitation. This exploitation is already in full swing in the space communications area. Both military and civilian objectives are being pursued with increasingly more sophisticated systems such as large antenna reflectors with active shape control. Both the NATO and Warsaw pact alliances are pursuing permanent space stations in orbit: large structural systems whose development calls for in-situ fabrication and/or assembly and whose operation will demand innovations in controls technology. The last ten years have witnessed a fairly brisk research activity in the dynamics and control oflarge space structures in orderto establish a technology base forthe development of advanced spacecraft systems envisioned for the future. They have spanned a wide spectrum of activity from fundamental methods development to systems concept studies and laboratory experimentation and demonstrations. Some flight experiments have also been conducted for various purposes such as the characterization of the space enviroment, durability of materials and devices in that environment, assembly and repair operations, and the dynamic behavior of flexible structures. It is this last area that has prompted this monogram.

This book was released on 2018-07-08 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new approach for the design and control of flexible space structures is described. The approach integrates the structure and controller design processes thereby providing extra opportunities for avoiding some of the disastrous effects of control-structures interaction and for discovering new, unexpected avenues of future structural design. A control formulation based on Boyd's implementation of Youla parameterization is employed. Control design parameters are coupled with structural design variables to produce a set of integrated-design variables which are selected through optimization-based methodology. A performance index reflecting spacecraft mission goals and constraints is formulated and optimized with respect to the integrated design variables. Initial studies have been concerned with achieving mission requirements with a lighter, more flexible space structure. Details of the formulation of the integrated-design approach are presented and results are given from a study involving the integrated redesign of a flexible geostationary platform. Hunziker, K.

Book Multivariable Methods for the Design  Identification  and Control of Large Space Structures

Download or read book Multivariable Methods for the Design Identification and Control of Large Space Structures written by S. Dumbacher and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report investigates the integrated control/structure design optimization problem for large flexible structures subject to stochastic disturbance forces. The full state feedback control of truss type structures is considered. The problem is formulated as a mathematical programming problem, and solved using a sequential approximations solution technique along with a scaling procedure. Due to the special nature of full state feedback control, it is shown that the controller can be assumed to be an LQR controller, where the control and state weightings are Lagrange multipliers from the mathematical programming optimality conditions. The design space is therefore effectively reduced to the truss element cross-sectional areas and these Lagrange multipliers, significantly reducing the computational effort required for solution. In this report, the solution algorithm is applied to the DRAPER I tetrahedral truss structure. Keywords: Large space structures; Multivariable control; Control structure interaction.
