The control of flexible systems is a large and important field of study. Unwanted transient
deflection and residual vibration are detrimental to many systems ranging from nano …

The backstep** control method provides useful control logic, especially for a cascaded
system. Because spacecraft dynamics and kinematics form a cascaded system, the …

Aggressive motions are often discouraged when a system has flexible dynamics. Common
practice suggests that smooth commands, such as S-curves, should be used to drive the …

Infrastructure monitoring, inspection, repair, and replacement in space is crucial for
continued usage and safety, yet it is expensive, time-consuming, and technically very …

In this paper, a new approach for vibration control of flexible spacecraft during attitude
maneuvering is proposed. This control strategy integrates the command input sha** and …

Input sha** is a well-established open-loop technique used for reducing the vibratory
response of dynamic systems. Some researchers have investigated the stability and utility of …

In this paper, the vibration reduction problem is investigated for a flexible spacecraft during
attitude maneuvering. A new control strategy is proposed, which integrates both the …

This paper investigates the effects of model fidelity and parameter uncertainty on the
performance of a hybrid model-based feedback-feedforward control scheme for attitude …

This paper presents a vibration control strategy for a two-link Flexible Joint Manipulator
(FJM) with a Hexapod Active Manipulator (HAM). A dynamic model of the multi-body, rigid …

A new adaptive control system for the rotational maneuver and vibration suppression of an
orbiting spacecraft with flexible appendages is designed. The model of the spacecraft …
