Finite-time stabilization for a novel non-contact spacecraft with a small air-clearance range constraint Mech. Syst. Signal Process. (IF 6.823) Pub Date : 2022-06-23 He Liao, Jirong Qi, Jinjin Xie, Zhu Zhu, Yanbin Zhao, Junhua Feng
The novel non-contact spacecraft can achieve physical vibration isolation through the non-contact Lorentz actuator (NCLA), thereby providing ultra-high payload pointing accuracy and stability. However, due to the change in the relative position of magnet and coil, the NCLA can ensure accurate control input only in the linear working range, but not in the entire air-clearance range. To address this

The unscented Kalman filter (UKF) is a promising method for system state and structural parameters estimation. However, its performance depends on the process noise and measurement noise covariance matrices, which are usually unknown in practice. Arbitrary selection of these covariance matrices may lead to unreliable or even diverging estimation results. To resolve this critical problem, we propose

There are two fundamental strategies in the design of metamaterials used for noise and vibration control. The first uses structural periodicity and explores the Bragg scattering to produce frequency ranges where waves do not propagate or are severely attenuated (stop-bands). This condition is usually limited by the constitutive size of the structural elements and tends to occur at higher frequencies
