Abstract

A method for generating on-off command profiles for flexible systems is presented. The command profiles move a system without residual vibration while using a specified amount of actuator fuel. The commands are described by closed-form expressions involving the system parameters. Performance measures such as, move duration, maximum transient deflection, and robustness to modeling errors indicate that the closed-form commands are attractive alternatives to time/fuel optimal commands that must be determined with a numerical optimization
