Spacecraft Dynamics and Control: A Practical Engineering

Spacecraft Dynamics and Control: A Practical Engineering Approach (Cambridge Aerospace Series, Series Number 7)
- Used Book in Good Condition
Used increasingly in telecommunications, scientific research, surveillance, and meteorology, satellites rely heavily on complex onboard control systems. This book explains the basic theory of spacecraft dynamics and control and the practical aspects of controlling a satellite. The emphasis is on analyzing and solving real-world engineering problems. Among the topics covered are orbital dynamics, attitude dynamics, gravity gradient stabilization, single and dual spin stabilization, attitude maneuvers, attitude stabilization, and structural dynamics and liquid sloshing.
