The control of flexible spacecraft is a difficult problem because of large number of elastic modes; low value, closely-spaced frequencies; very small damping; and uncertainties in math models. The traditional design approach is to design the structure first and then to design the control system. This view-graph presentation develops a methodology for spacecraft design which addresses control/structure interaction issues, produces technology for simultaneous control/structure design, and translates into algorithms and computational tools for practical integrated computer-aided design.
