A control-augmented structural synthesis methodology is presented in which the structural member sizes and active control system feedback gains are treated simultaneously as independent design variables. Multiple static and harmonic dynamic loading conditions are considered. Constraints are imposed on static displacements, natural frequencies, and the magnitudes of the steady-state dynamic displacements and actuator forces to ensure acceptable system behavior. Side constraints imposed on the design variables protect against the generation of unrealizable designs. Example problems are presented that demonstrate the method and underscore the importance of integrating the structural and active control system design process.
