The authors propose an actuator location optimization with actuator failure consideration for the static shape control of large space truss structures. Actuator failure models are considered and the formulation of the simplest failure model is given. The authors explain that the optimization problem of the present study becomes a min-max problem by using the genetic algorithm methode as the optimizer. This analysis is applied to a realistic problem based on a three-ring tetrahedral truss example. So far as investigated here, an actuator location with high fault tolerance for static shape control can be obtained by an optimization with actuator failure consideration.
