Abstract Space debris is considered as a serious problem for operational space missions.
Many enabling space debris capturing and removal methods have been proposed in the …

Abstract Space robotics is considered one of the most promising approaches for on-orbit
servicing (OOS) missions such as docking, berthing, refueling, repairing, upgrading …

The combined spacecraft is increasingly demanded to accomplish various types of space
missions. Therefore, the dynamics and control technologies of combined spacecraft are …

ROBOTIC capture and servicing of a cooperative satellite in orbit for on-orbit servicing (OOS)
has been demonstrated by several past missions, such as the Engineering Test Satellite …

This paper introduces an optimal capture strategy for a manipulator based on a servicing
spacecraft to approach an arbitrarily rotating object, such as a malfunctioning satellite or a …

Robots are more often deployed in unstructured or unpredictable environments. Particularly
collisions at high speed can severely damage the drivetrains and joint bearings of robots. In …

After 60 years of intensive satellite launches, the number of drifting objects in Earth orbits is
reaching a shifting point, where human intervention is becoming necessary to reduce the …

全柔性空间机械臂捕获卫星后会产生柔性振动, 同时导致系统处于不稳定状态.
本文针对不稳定的混合体系统, 提出了基于混合轨迹的自校正控制算法, 以完成镇定运动控制 …

This paper presents an optimal control strategy for a space robot to capture a free-tumbling
object under the condition of having minimal impact to the base satellite during the capturing …

During capture of a free-flying object, a robotic servicer can be subject to impacts, which may
separate it from the object or damage crucial subsystems. However, the reactions can be …
