Control of Flexible Structures (Fields Institute Communications, 2)

By: Morris, Kirsten A. Ed

Flexible structures arise in significant important areas of application, such as robotics, large space structures and antenna control. Difficulties related to sensing and identification hamper control of such systems. These problems require collaboration between mathematicians and engineers. This volume contains papers presented at the Problems in Sensing, Identification and Control of Flexible Structures workshop. Topics range from theoretical research on the well-posedness of systems, to experimental implementations of various controllers. A number of controller design techniques are discussed and compared, and there are several papers on modelling the complex dynamics of flexible structures.
