Rendezvous orbital dynamics and control (RODC) is a key technology for operating space
rendezvous and docking missions. This paper surveys the studies on RODC. Firstly, the …

Lambert's problem is the two-point boundary value problem for Keplerian dynamics. The
parameter and solution space is surveyed for both the zero-and multiple-revolution …

The complete parameter space for Lambert's problem includes all possible geometries, flight
times, and revolutions. An earlier work exploited a rectangular form of this parameter space …

The multi-objective optimization of linearized impulsive rendezvous is investigated in this
paper and this optimization includes the minimum characteristic velocity, the minimum time …

This article investigates the asymptotic stability of impulsive delay dynamical systems (IDDS)
by using the Lyapunov–Krasovskii method and looped-functionals. The proposed conditions …

This paper provides an alternative Lambert solution based on the terminal velocity vector.
The chordal terminal velocity component is selected as the independent variable since it is …

The Lambert problem originated in orbital mechanics. It concerns with determining the initial
velocity for a boundary value problem involving the dynamical constraint due to gravitational …

The scheduling problem arising from refueling multiple satellites in a circular constellation is
studied. It is assumed that no fuel is delivered to the constellation from an external source …

LAMBERT, s problem has been discussed over the years by many researchers [1–3]. Gauss
[1] first developed an iterative method to solve Lambert, s problem, which is efficient and …

A new hybrid optimization approach is proposed for the design of a rendezvous-phasing
strategy with combined maneuvers, which is normally considered as a complex multiple …
