This paper explores a hierarchical shape control method for large, lightweight polymer mirrors with unimorph actuation. Two methods of generating strain-driven forces are discussed. The initial focus is on the study of linear interaction matrices for various actuation configurations. Subsequently, control algorithms are designed for a large active optics aperture. The controlled degrees of freedom for the injection spots of electron flux are estimated, and criteria for examining iteration convergence are proposed.
