Rigid-Flexible Coupling Dynamics and Control of Flexible Spacecraft with Time-Varying Parameters

This book presents the dynamic modeling and attitude control of flexible spacecraft with time—varying parameters. The dynamic characteristics, vibration control methods and attitude stabilization methods for spacecraft are systematically studied in respects of the theoretical modeling, numerical simulation and the ground experiment.

Three active control theories in complex mode space are presented for flexible space structures. Optimal slew strategies based on variable amplitudes input sh...
