A new approach of an integrated structure/control co-design methodology is developed based on the recognition that a high degree of coupling exists between the control and structural disciplines in the control of flexible space structures. A unified computational framework is developed gathering methodologies and tools coming from robust control theory and advanced worst case analysis techniques together with mechanical modelling engineering tools. Within this environment, design iterations consist in updating critical control and structure design variables by assessing controlled performance while minimizing structural mass. The optimisation process utilises a Differential Evolution algorithm. Multiobjective optimisation is also supported highlighting the compromise between mechanical and control objectives. The Linear Fractional Transformation formalism provides an uncertain representation of the spacecraft dynamics which is considered during the controller synthesis and analysis processes together, managed in the H∞/μ setting. Traditional Monte-Carlo simulations evaluate the robust performance of the controller design whilst optimisation-based worst-case analysis has been implemented to increase the efficiency of the worst-case extraction. This paper presents the work supported by the European Space Agency in the scope of the robust AOCS technology program initiated to support the BIOMASS mission; a candidate for the Earth Explorer Core 7 missions. |
