This article describes the application of an adaptive control algorithm for the atmospheric phase control of a launch vehicle. A dynamic model representing the pitch motion of the launch vehicle is introduced. As the bending modes can cause instability, the first threebending modes are modelled. A case study on design of the bending filters for a flexible launch vehicle using a model reference adaptive control is conducted to demonstrate its effectiveness.

A single degree of freedom mechanical spring-mass system was considered where the motion of the mass is constrained by an adjustable rigid impact stop. A model reference adaptive control algorithm combined with interspike interval techniques was used to consider the viability of identifying system parameters when impacts are present. The unmodified adaptive control algorithm destabilizes during vibro-impact motion, so three modified control algorithms were tested experimentally. The first, the gain reset, was found to be of limited use and system identification could not be successfully carried out. The second and third used a gain pause strategy. The second algorithm used acceleration triggering and represented an improvement on the gain reset method. The third approach used displacement triggering and was found to be partially successful in identifying system parameters in the presence of vibro-impact motion.
