The Control of Flexible Structures (COFS) program is divided into three areas of research. These three areas are controls/structures analysis development, ground test experiments, and in-space experiments. The ground test experiments are intended to validate analyses and to confirm through hardware tests our technical readiness to successfully fly the Mast hardware. There is this close relation to the results of ground tests and analytical predictions that must be understood before flight experiments may be attempted. Details relative to each program area are given.
