Modelling, analysis and test support related to vibration and control/structure interaction for the ELT telescope structure and hosted units
The following tasks are planned to be carried within a 6 months period:
- Adaptation to the tools available in the Directorate of engineering related to Mechanical and Control simulations.
- M5 and M2/M3 units, assistance on:
- Integration of the finite element models developed by the contractors and building the system mechanical model.
- Building the state space model for control simulation.
- Perform optical surface errors crosschecks.
- Integration of the finite element models developed by the contractors and building the system mechanical model.
- Continue the development of the simplified models of the hosted units of the telescope.
- Provide support with the vibration test campaign, and cross checking the measurements with the models and simulations.
