This paper addresses the fuel-optimal satellite formation reconfiguration problem with
continuous low-thrust control. Based on the relative eccentricity and inclination (E/I) theory, a …

This paper analyzes the nonlinear dynamic behavior of a three-body tethered satellite
system undergoing deployment and retrieval, considering a variable orbital radius for the …

This paper is devoted to the dynamics in a central gravity field of two point masses
connected by a massless tether (the so called “spring–mass” model of tethered satellite …

The aim of the present paper is to study the dynamics of a dumbbell satellite moving in a
gravity field generated by an oblate body considering the effect of the zonal harmonic …

The Sitnikov problem is a classical problem broadly studied in physics which can represent
an illustrative example of chaotic scattering. The relativistic version of this problem can be …

The dynamics of classical mass-point orbits is changed when using cable-connected
satellites. If long enough, tethers in fast rotation have stabilizing characteristics that make …

This paper presents the stability of resonant rotation of a symmetric gyrostat under third-and
fourth-order resonances, whose center of mass moves in an elliptic orbit in a central …

The nonlinear dynamics of a tethered space solar power station are presented. Dynamic
formulations are developed for a solar power station system that consists of two main parts …

In this paper the importance of the ill-posedness of the classical, non-dissipative massive
tether model on an orbiting tether system is studied numerically. The computations …
