Abstract
A laboratory facility to study various control problems related to flexible mechanical structures is described. Computer, interfacing, and software issues are discussed. A novel proof-mass actuator is presented. A free-free suspended-beam experiment and a skewing-beam experiment are described. Three additional experimental setups at various stages of development are briefly considered.<>
