Abstract
In consideration of the extreme flexibility characteristics of film sail and large-scale booms of solar sail, a nonlinear rigid-flexible coupling dynamic model is presented. Based on the coupling dynamic model, a fractional order PID controller is designed to stabilize the system. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method, as the asymptotic tracking of the sail target attitude angle and robust vibration suppression of flexible structures are all achieved, and results is much better compared with the traditional PID controller.
