© 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. part of Springer Nature. The paper presents a generalized composite noncertainty-equivalence adaptive control system for the control of a prototypical aeroelastic wing section using a single trailing-edge control surface. The plunge–pitch (two-degree-of-freedom) dynamics of this aeroelastic system include torsional pitch-axis nonlinearity. The open-loop system exhibits limit cycle oscillations beyond a critical free-stream velocity. It is assumed that parameters of the model are not known. The objective is to suppress the oscillatory responses of the system. Based on the immersion and invariance approach, a generalized composite noncertainty-equivalence adaptive (NCEA) control …


Hamiltonian-Based Libration Point Orbit Control On Manifold Of Constant Energy, Keum W. Lee, Sahjendra N. Singh Jan 2021

Hamiltonian-Based Libration Point Orbit Control On Manifold Of Constant Energy, Keum W. Lee, Sahjendra N. Singh

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Research

© 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG. The circular restricted three-body problem (CR3BP) is important from the theoretical as well as a practical viewpoint. In this paper, the objective is to control a spacecraft along stable or unstable libration point orbits. For this purpose, a manifold of constant energy is specified. Then, a Hamiltonian-based state variable feedback control law is designed for regulating the spacecraft to attain the specified level of energy. Through the Lyapunov analysis, asymptotic convergence of the system energy to prescribed level is established. For this multi-dimensional constant energy manifold, a variety of periodic and quasi-periodic libration point …
