Study of Rolling Control Based on ADAMS for a Controllable-Rolling Actuator

A novel controllable-rolling electric actuator and its rolling control are presented in this paper. Electro-mechanical heterogeneous modeling and simulation technique are used to achieve the study of the rolling control system. The mechanical model of the actuator is established through Adams instead of founding the equations as the system is complex. Using Matlab to design the controller for the rolling system. And coupling Adams and Matlab together to achieve the simulation of the azimuth angle close loop control system of the spinning missile. The simulations choose a unit step input, and are carried out at different spinning rate to verify the dynamic response of the system. Furthermore, the deflect angles of the control faces and the motor speed are given to emphasize the differences between different spinning rate of the missile body.
