Title :
Approximate finite element models for structural control
Author_Institution :
University of California, Livermore, California
Abstract :
Approximate finite element models are developed for the purpose of preserving the tridiagonality of the mass and stiffness matrices in the state space model matrices. These approximate models are utilized in the design of active structural control laws for large flexible structures.
