| A common problem in controlling a large flexible structure with a reduced order model is the excitation of the residual (non-modelled) modes by the control inputs resulting in control spillover. In this thesis a new approach to eliminate control spillover is examined. This approach, based on the independent modal-space control method, uses a finite number of spatially distributed input points to eliminate control spillover. Control of an undamped beam and ... |
