Abstract

Equations of motion in model coordinates are derived for a single-link, flexible remote manipulator arm with a noncollocated sensor and actuator. The arm has an actuator with torque control at the pinned end and a visual sensor at the free end. A command generator tracker prescribes the rigid body mode to track the motion of a satellite in space while a model following adaptive controller dictates the flexible body modes. Performance results are obtained from a simulation developed using Advanced Continuous Simulation Language.
