Abstract
The problem of active control of transient dynamic response of large space structures (LSS), using the fully coupled nodal equations of motion, taking account of non-proportional passive damping, is treated. Equivalent continuum plate-models of LSS are considered. A reduced-order modeling of the structure using a boundary element method is presented. Efficient algorithms for solving the matrix algebraic Riccati equation are discussed. Several examples are presented to illustrate the controllability of the transient dynamic response of the structure, using an arbitrary number of control-force actuators.
