Abstract
A new approach of an integrated structure/control co-design methodology is developed based on the recognition that a high degree of coupling exists between the control and structural disciplines in the control of flexible space structures. A unified computational framework is developed gathering methodologies and tools coming from robust control theory and advanced worst case analysis techniques together with mechanical modelling engineering tools. Within this environment, design iterations consist in updating critical control and structure design variables by assessing controlled performance while minimizing structural mass. The optimisation process utilises a Differential Evolution algorithm. Multiobjective optimisation is also supported highlighting the compromise between mechanical and control objectives. The Linear Fractional Transformation formalism provides an uncertain representation of the spacecraft dynamics which is considered during the controller synthesis and analysis processes together, managed in the H∞/μ setting. Traditional Monte-Carlo simulations evaluate the robust performance of the controller design whilst optimisation-based worst-case analysis has been implemented to increase the efficiency of the worst-case extraction. This paper presents the work supported by the European Space Agency in the scope of the robust AOCS technology program initiated to support the BIOMASS mission; a candidate for the Earth Explorer Core 7 missions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
