This paper addresses design of nonlinear control systems for rapid, large angle multiaxis, slewing and LOS pointing of realistic flexible space structures. The application of methods based on adaptive feedback linearization for nonlinear control design for flexible space structures is presented. A comprehensive approach to modeling the nonlinear dynamics and attitude control of multibody systems with structural flexure is considered. Adaptive feedback linearizing control laws are described based on Lagrangian dynamical system model for the spacecraft. Simulation results for attitude slewing and LOS stabilization for the NASA/IEEE Spacecraft COntrols Laboratory Experiment (SCOLE) design challenge are presented.

ABSTRACTIn attempts to provide an active solution for the rigidization of flexible space structures, internal resistive heating is applied to a novel thermosetting resin. Carbon-fiber tow coated in U-Nyte Set 201A, which cures at ∼150°C, was heated by passing electric current through the reinforcing material. Using a proportional-integral (PI) controller, precise temperature control of the heating process was established. Samples cured via controlled internal resistive heating were heated to 160°C and underwent material consolidation in less than 7 minutes. A change in material stiffness was measured to be almost two orders of magnitude greater than that of an uncured material.
