Static output feedback considers an optimal low-order feedback matrix which directly connects the sensors to the control inputs. This work demonstrates the numerical techniques needed to compute the analytical gradient of the optimal feedback matrix with respect to design variables, which may then be used for gradient-based optimization. The derivatives are demonstrated for aeroservoelastic optimization under a series of closed- loop gust load alleviation constraints, considering a continuous stochastic gust load applied to a transport vehicle configuration, among other design constraints such as utter and maneuver loads. The optimal trade-o s between passive load alleviation and active load alleviation for static output feedback are compared with those from full-state feedback, which may be considered an upper-bound for effective sensor-based control.
