Space Vehicle Dynamics and Control provides a foundation in dynamic modelling, analysis and control of space vehicles. Sections cover the fundamentals of controlling orbital, attitude and structural motions of space vehicles.
The textbook highlights a range of orbital manoeuvering and control problems:
- •
orbital transfer;
- •
rendezvous;
- •
orbit control; and
- •
halo orbit determination and control.
Rotational manoeuvring and attitude control problems of space vehicles under the influence of reaction jet firings, internal energy dissipation, or momentum transfer via reaction wheels and control moment gyros are treated in detail. The textbook also highlights the analysis and design of attitude control systems in the presence of structural flexibility and/or propellant sloshing.
Contents: Dynamic Systems Modelling and Analysis; Dynamic Systems Control; Orbital Dynamics; Orbital Manoeuvres and Control; Rotational Kinematics; Rigid Body Dynamics; Rotational Manoeuvres and Attitude Control; Structural Dynamics; Attitude and Structural Control; Robust Optimal Manoeuvres.
