Control Moment Gyroscopes (CMGs) have typically been used for attitude control of satellites. This paper extends the application of CMGs to regulate vibrations in the flexible appendages of orbiting spacecraft using a novel double- and single-gimbaled CMG prototype design. System Identification and control experiments were carried out to compare the effectiveness of this new CMG to regulate lightly damped, low frequency vibrations in a single flexible rib. Experimental results conclude that the CMG can be effectively used to regulate vibrations in flexible structures and, for equivalent values of gyricity and disturbance, the double-gimbaled CMG performance can be two to three times more effective and independent of the direction of applied disturbance.

A novel partial differential equation observer is proposed to be used in boundary attitude and vibration control of flexible satellites. Solar panels’ vibrations and attitude dynamics form a coupled partial differential equation–ordinary differential equation system which is controlled directly without discretization. Few feedback signals from boundaries are required which are estimated via a partial differential equation observer. Consequently, just satellite attitude and angular velocity should be measured and still the control system benefits information from continuous part vibrations. The closed-loop system is proved to be asymptotically stable. Simulations with a finite element technique illustrate good performance of this observer-based boundary controller.

Vibration properties of most assembled mechanical systems depend on frictional damping in joints. The nonlinear transfer behavior of the frictional interfaces often provides the dominant damping mechanism in structure and plays an important role in the vibratory response of it. For improving the performance of systems, many studies have been carried out to predict measure and enhance the energy dissipation of friction. This paper presents a new approach to vibration reduction of flexible spacecraft with enhancing the energy dissipation of frictional dampers. Spacecraft is modeled as a 3 degree of freedom mass-spring system which is controlled by a lead compensator and System responses to step function evaluated. Coulomb and Jenkins element has been used as vibration suppression mechanisms in joints and sensitivity of their performance to variations of spacecraft excitation amplitude and damper properties is analyzed. The relation between frictional force and displacement derived and used in optimization of control performance. Responses of system and control effort needed for the vibration control are compared for these two frictional joints. It is shown that attitude control effort reduces, significantly with coulomb dampers and response of system improves. On the other hand, due to stick-slip phenomena in Jenkins element, we couldn’t expect the same performance from Jenkins damper.

Vibration suppression in servo systems is significant in high-precision motion control. This paper describes a vibration-suppression method based on input shaping and adaptive model-following control. First, a zero vibration input shaper is used to suppress the vibration caused by an elastic load to obtain an ideal position output. Then, a configuration that combines input shaping with model-following control is developed to suppress the vibration caused by changes of system parameters. Finally, analyzing the percentage residual vibration reveals that it is effective to employ the sum of squared position error as a criterion. Additionally, a golden-section search is used to adjust the parameters of a compensator in an online fashion to adapt to the changes in the vibration frequency. A comparison with other input shaper methods shows the effectiveness and superiority of the developed method.

Although input shaping is an effective approach for vibration suppression in a variety of applications, the time delay introduced is not desired. Current techniques to reduce the time delay can not guarantee zero delay or may cause non-smooth motion, which is harmful for the actuators. In order to address such issue, a modified zero time delay input shaping is proposed in this paper. Experimental results show the advantage of the proposed approach.

Abstract A closed-form method of calculating Input Shaping sequences for two modes of vibration is presented. The new method eliminates the optimization routines previously required to find the same solutions. Input Shaping is a feed forward method of reducing residual vibrations in flexible structures by convolving an Input Shaping sequence with a command profile. The two-mode sequences are installed on a four-axis robot used in the manufacture of silicon wafers — the Cassette Management System. The new sequences are found to significantly improve the performance of the system. In standard throughput tests, speed increases of 15%–25% were obtained on each axis while vibrations were simultaneously reduced by 20%–90%.
