Developing the essential theory for architecting and tackling issues faced during complex
realistic engineering problems, this volume focuses on enhanced anti-disturbance control …

The problem of motion of a rigid body about a fixed point is one of the classical problems of
mechanics, the study of which in the eighteenth to nineteenth centuries is connected with the …

This paper studies the attitude control problem of spacecrafts with flexible appendages. It is
well known that the unwanted vibration modes, model uncertainty and space environmental …

Active debris removal is one of the promising techniques that will decrease the population of
large, non-functional spacecraft (space debris) on orbit. Properties of space debris should …

A new adaptive control system for the rotational maneuver and vibration suppression of an
orbiting spacecraft with flexible appendages is designed. The model of the spacecraft …

THE attitude evolution of a rigid body under various torques has been extensively studied
over the past few decades because of its importance in aerospace engineering [1–11]. The …

In this paper, the contact control problem of a space robot to grasp a non-cooperative
satellite is investigated in detail, and a new capture control strategy is proposed. Firstly, the …

Проблема движения твердого тела относительно неподвижной точки является одной
из классических задач механики, исследование которой в XVIII–XIX веках связано с …

High dynamic non-cooperative space targets generally perform complex motions with large
angular velocities, so capturing these targets directly may cause fracture damage to the …

The paper develops an approximate solution by means of an averaging method to the
system of Euler's equations with additional perturbation terms for a nearly dynamically …
