| Description | The objectives of the PACOSS program were to demonstrate the respective roles of passive and active control for structures that represented future Large Space Structures (LSS), to develop means to introduce passive vibration control, and to experimentally verify the damping predictions and the control algorithms. In order to meet the objectives, the program was divided into an analytical simulation phase to establish the respective roles of passive and active damping on a LSS-type structure, and a design, analysis, and test phase to validate the passive damping and the control algorithm performance for a structure. Predictable amounts of damping can be designed into a LSS structure, the best control strategy uses a combination of passive damping and active controls, and a more optimum system can be achieved by an early interaction between the structural designer, controls engineer, and the damping designer. |
