Abstract:

The goal of this research was to study estimation and control of elastic systems composed of beams and plates. Specifically, the research considered the problem of locating the optimal placement of controllers on a beam or plate and the problem of controlling general three-dimensional elastic models that incorporate nonlinear friction and contact laws on the boundary conditions. This final report summarizes those results.
