Experiments and simulations of large-angle flexible beam control using an adaptive truss

The objective of this thesis is to study the vibration suppression capabilities of a double-octahedral adaptive truss with an appended flexible beam. Three cases are studied. The first case is an experimental and analytical investigation of flexible beam control using an adaptive truss positioned in...
