PDF-(DOWNLOAD)-Spacecraft Dynamics and Control: An Introduction

Provides the basics of spacecraft orbital dynamics plus attitude dynamics and control using vectrix notationSpacecraft Dynamics and Control An Introduction presents the fundamentals of classical control in the context of spacecraft attitude control This approach is particularly beneficial for the training of students in both of the subjects of classical control as well as its application to spacecraft attitude control By using a physical system a spacecraft that the reader can visualize rather than arbitrary transfer functions it is easier to grasp the motivation for why topics in control theory are important as well as the theory behind them The entire treatment of both orbital and attitude dynamics makes use of vectrix notation which is a tool that allows the user to write down any vector equation of motion without consideration of a reference frame This is particularly suited to the treatment of multiple reference frames Vectrix notation also makes a very clear distinction between a physical vector and its coordinate representation in a reference frame This is very important in spacecraft dynamics and control problems where often multiple coordinate representations are used in different reference frames for the same physical vectorProvides an accessible practical aid for teaching and selfstudy with a layout enabling a fundamental understanding of the subjectFills a gap in the existing literature by providing an analytical toolbox offering the reader a lasting rigorous methodology for approaching vector mechanics a key element vital to new graduates and practicing engineers alikeDelivers an outstanding resource for aerospace engineering students and all those involved in the technical aspects of design and engineering in the space sectorContains numerous illustrations to accompany the written text Problems are included to apply and extend the material in each chapterEssential reading for graduate level aerospace engineering students aerospace professionals researchers and engineers.

Importance of early defect identification. Space agencies are now realizing that much of what has previously been achieved using hugely complex and costly single platform projects--large unmanned and manned satellites (including the present International Space Station)--can be replaced by a number of smaller satellites networked together. The key challenge of this approach, namely ensuring the proper formation flying of multiple craft, is the topic of this second volume in Elsevier\'s Astrodynamics Series, Spacecraft Formation Flying: Dynamics, control and navigation.In this unique text, authors Alfriend et al. provide a coherent discussion of spacecraft relative motion, both in the unperturbed and perturbed settings, explain the main control approaches for regulating relative satellite dynamics, using both impulsive and continuous maneuvers, and present the main constituents required for relative navigation. The early chapters provide a foundation upon which later discussions are built, making this a complete, standalone offering.Intended for graduate students, professors and academic researchers in the fields of aerospace and mechanical engineering, mathematics, astronomy and astrophysics, Spacecraft Formation Flying is a technical yet accessible, forward-thinking guide to this critical area of astrodynamics.
