Structure/control synthesis with nonnegligible actuator massThe simultaneous design of a structure/active control system is addressed in which the mass of the actuators required to implement the active control is considered. An algorithm for estimating the required actuator mass given the control law and the desired maneuver is presented. A nonlinear optimization algorithm is used to direct the design process. Results are given for the design of a L shaped structure where it is desired to minimize the line of sight pointing error after a worst case slew maneuver.
