“…Second, either alternatively or in tandem, dynamic responses are minimized with active or passive vibration-suppression employing smart materials, most commonly piezoelectric sensors and actuators. [10,11,14,18] Although some of these solutions are adaptable to the small satellite model, many are not due to size and power restrictions. In any event, with the popularity of small satellites increasing, new ideas and further advances in flexible-satellite attitude control, in particular solutions adaptable to the small-satellite model, will enable further growth in this area.…”
