This paper proposes a method to determine free design parameters in a feedback control law for slew maneuver of flexible beams. The feedback law is designed by applying Lyapunov's stability theory. The characteristics of the closed-loop systems are analyzed based on dimensionless equations and their relationship to free parameters are studied systematically. Results of the analysis and simulation suggest some guidelines on the gain determination. A numerical example shows that appropriate values of the free parameters can be found based on the proposed guidelines without trial and error.
