In this paper, we address simultaneous structure/controller design of flexible space structures. In particular, we consider optimal placement of sensors and actuators together with control design. Even though the original problem is non-convex, we transform it into a convex one via a novel approach. In particular, nonlinear parameter relationship is described as a bound of a convex region in a parameter space. Bounding the region by a set of tangential lines, we seek optimal solutions that approach the bound of the region.
