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.
