Multirate Flutter Suppression System Design For The Benchmark Active Controls Technology Wing PDF Download

To study the effectiveness of various control system design methodologies, the NASA Langley Research Center initiated the Benchmark Active Controls Project. In this project, the various methodologies were applied to design a flutter suppression system for the Benchmark Active Controls Technology (BACT) Wing. This report describes a project at the University of Washington to design a multirate suppression system for the BACT wing. The objective of the project was two fold. First, to develop a methodology for designing robust multirate compensators, and second, to demonstrate the methodology by applying it to the design of a multirate flutter suppression system for the BACT wing.Mason, Gregory S. and Berg, Martin C. and Mukhopadhyay, VivekLangley Research CenterACTIVE CONTROL; CONTROL SYSTEMS DESIGN; VIBRATION DAMPING; WINGS; COMPENSATORS; SYSTEMS ENGINEERING
