Theory and Applications of Multi-Tethers in Space, Paperback / softback Book

Theory and Applications of Multi-Tethers in Space Paperback / softback

Part of the Springer Tracts in Mechanical Engineering series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book offers a comprehensive overview of recently developed space multi-tethers, such as maneuverable space tethered nets and space tethered formation.

For each application, it provides detailed derivatives to describe and analyze the mathematical model of the system, and then discusses the design and proof of different control schemes for various problems.

The dynamics modeling presented is based on Newton and Lagrangian mechanics, and the book also introduces Hamilton mechanics and Poincaré surface of section for dynamics analysis, and employs both centralized and distributed controllers to derive the formation question of the multi-tethered system.

In addition to the equations and text, it includes 3D design drawings, schematic diagrams, control scheme blocks and tables to make it easy to understand.

This book is intended for researchers and graduate students in the fields of astronautics, control science, and engineering.
