Facility to study the control of flexible space structures : test plan (preliminary) / C.H. Hersom.: Co24-3/1-83-025E-PDF

"In order to focus on experimental objectives and procedures in connection with the facility under development to study the control of flexible space structures, a test plan is desirable. A series of discussions has been convened between Dynacon (represented by P.C. Hughes and G.B. Sincarsin) and HERSOM Engineering Services (represented by C.H. Hersom) in order to combine the technical goals of the facility (formulated by Dynacon) with proper technical procedures (formulated by HERSOM). This document is only the first iteration in this process of collaboration, which accounts for the cautionary word "preliminary" in its title. As the detailed design proceeds; as the hardware becomes available; and as the familiarity with this facility becomes more mature; the test plan(s) will become more complete. At such time, a subsequent edition of this report will be issued"--Summary and preface.
