Rigid Body Dynamics for Space Applications

Informationen zum Autor Professor Aslanov has been Department Head/Professor at Samara State Aerospace University since 1989. Since 2019, he has also served as the head of the 'Space Flight Mechanics Laboratory' at the Moscow Aviation Institute. His scientific interests include classical mechanics, nonlinear oscillations and chaotic dynamics, mechanics of space flight, dynamics of gyrostats, and dynamics of tethered satellite systems and spacecraft stability. He has published multiple books, including Dynamics of Tethered Satellite Systems and Rigid Body Dynamics for Space Dynamics, both with Elsevier. Klappentext Rigid Body Dynamics for Space Applications explores the modern problems of spaceflight mechanics, such as attitude dynamics of re-entry and space debris in Earth's atmosphere; dynamics and control of coaxial satellite gyrostats; deployment, dynamics, and control of a tether-assisted return mission of a re-entry capsule; and removal of large space debris by a tether tow. Most space systems can be considered as a system of rigid bodies, with additional elastic and viscoelastic elements and fuel residuals in some cases. This guide shows the nature of the phenomena and explains the behavior of space objects. Researchers working on spacecraft attitude dynamics or space debris removal as well as those in the fields of mechanics, aerospace engineering, and aerospace science will benefit from this book.
