Abstract A decentralized simple adaptive control is proposed for the vibration suppression of large space structures (LSS) with distributed actuators and sensors. The LSS is viewed as a set of connected substructures so that the dynamic substructuring method can be applied to establish the equations of motion for the LSS. Then, extraction and contraction of the subsystems are performed to form the perturbed equations of motion for each substructure. An output feedback control law only requiring the information of the local sensors is designed based on the simple adaptive control method. The stability of the overall system is rigorously proven.
