An Implementation of a Dual-Spin Spacecraft Attitude Reorientation Using Properties of Its Chaotic Motion
نویسنده
چکیده
This article contains a description of main ideas for the attitude reorientation of spacecraft (small dual-spin spacecraft, nanosatellites) using properties of its chaotic attitude motion under the action of internal perturbations. The considering method based on intentional initiations of chaotic modes of the attitude motion with big amplitudes of the nutation oscillations, and also on the redistributions of the angular momentum between coaxial bodies of the dual-spin spacecraft (DSSC), which perform in the purpose of system’s phase space changing. Keywords—Spacecraft, Attitude Dynamics and Control, Chaos.

Attitude Stability of Flexible Asymmetric Dual-spin Spacecraft
This paper deals with the attitude motion of a dual-spin spacecraft which consists of an asymmetric rigid platform and an asymmetric rigid rotor connected together by a flexible joint. The equations of motion represent a flexible multiple-degree-of-freedom gyroscopic system with periodic coefficients due to asymmetries. The equations are analyzed for possible resonances and associated instabili...
متن کاملA novel approach to the attitude control of axisymmetric spacecraft
A novel approach is proposed for the attitude stabilization and reorientation of an axi-symmetric spacecraft subject to two gas jet actuators. The approach is based on a new formulation of the attitude kinematics. Abstract| In this paper we consider the problem of attitude stabilization of an axi-symmetric spacecraft using two pairs of gas jet actuators. These actuators provide control torques ...
متن کاملChaos in the Reorientation Process of a Dual-Spin Spacecraft with Time-Dependent moments of Inertia
We study the spin-up dynamics of a dual-spin spacecraft containing one axisymmetric rotor which is parallel to one of the principal axes of the spacecraft. It will be supposed that one of the moments of inertia of the platform is a periodic function of time and that the center of mass of the spacecraft is not modified. Under these assumptions, it is shown that in the absence of external torques...
متن کاملAdaptive Control of a Spin-Stabilized Spacecraft Using two Reaction Wheels and a 1DoF Gimbaled-Thruster
In impulsive orbital maneuvers, a large disturbance torque is generated by the thrust vector misalignment from the center of mass (C.M). The purpose of this paper is to reject the mentioned disturbance and stabilize the spacecraft attitude, based on the combination of a one degree of freedom (1DoF) gimbaled-thruster, two reaction wheels (RWs) and spin-stabilization. In this paper, the disturban...
متن کاملReview and Analysis of Single-thruster Attitude Control Techniques for Spinning Spacecraft
The attitude dynamics and manoeuvre survey in this paper is performed for a mission scenario involving a penetrator-type spacecraft, a semi-rigid axisymmetric prolate spacecraft spinning around its minor axis of inertia, requested to perform a 90° spin axis reorientation manoeuvre. In contrast to most existing spacecraft only one attitude control torque is available, perpendicular to the spin a...
