This book introduces readers to the navigation, guidance and control technologies involved in single-spacecraft, double-spacecraft, and multiple-spacecraft tasks in elliptical orbits. It comprehensively covers the key technologies of guidance, navigation and control (GNC) system design for spacecraft in elliptical orbits, including the orbit design, formation configuration design and maintenance, autonomous navigation technology and relative navigation technology, as well as autonomous rendezvous technology. The methods that this book introduces are very close to actual practical engineering applications and presented in an accessible style. The book can serve as reference teaching material for senior undergraduates and postgraduates with space navigation related majors, while also providing essential information and guidance for research personnel and engineering technical personnel engaged in the development of GNC systems for spacecraft.
Elliptical Orbit: Earth does not enjoy warm circular orbits 92 million miles from the Sun. Earth goes through a 96’000 year cycle of warm circular orbits to long elliptical and frozen orbits of 10’000 year ice ages.and back to warm circular orbit. 1500 of Earth’s wealthiest have a plan to to save humanity from extinction during the coming Ice Age. Must be totally self sufficient to provide electric power for an unlimited future. Water and sewage treatment. Effluent to fertilize veggie and plant growth. Where and how to build such a project? Only a mountain is strong enough to withstand a mile of glacial ice. Ice age survival project has chosen Mt Mouna Loa or Mt Mouns Kea on Big Island, Hawaii. To build a habitat for survival. No subduction zones nearby, no mag 9 earthquakes, warm, constant +28 C temperature under the mountain Geothermal energy is available from the Magma pool under Mouna Loa for energy to drive steam turbine generators for unlimited electrical power. Tunnel under Mouna Kea, space for 10’000 survivors. Ms Leianna and daughter Miss Alaina, two poor but happy Hula dancers earn thier living by Hula performances at any Bar or Night club that will hire them. A casual meeting with Mr Chas Bucktrol after a dance performance, leads to Ms Leianna included in Social planning for Ice Age survival. Planning for Long stable families. Divorce is eliminated. Business card, Umm Mr Chas Bucktrol CEO Bucktroll.Inc $Billions. I will capture and marry Mr Chas Bucktrol, no more living on scraps.
This compact and easy-to-read text provides a clear analysis of the principles of equilibrium of rigid bodies in statics and dynamics when they are subjected to external mechanical loads. The book also introduces the readers to the effects of force or displacements so as to give an overall picture of the behaviour of an engineering system. Divided into two parts-statics and dynamics-the book has a structured format, with a gradual development of the subject from simple concepts to advanced topics so that the beginning undergraduate is able to comprehend the subject with ease. Example problems are chosen from engineering practice and all the steps involved in the solution of a problem are explained in detail. The book also covers advanced topics such as the use of virtual work principle for finite element analysis; introduction of Castigliano's theorem for elementary indeterminate analysis; use of Lagrange's equations for obtaining equilibrium relations for multibody system; principles of gyroscopic motion and their applications; and the response of structures due to ground motion and its use in earthquake engineering. The book has plenty of exercise problems-which are arranged in a graded level of difficulty-, worked-out examples and numerous diagrams that illustrate the principles discussed. These features along with the clear exposition of principles make the text suitable for the first year undergraduate students in engineering.
This collection of articles highlights all possible trajectories of particles and light under the influence of a gravitational field of all possible strengths that may exist in our universe, including that of a black hole; and it also highlights the beautiful mathematical formulas that can express all these trajectories, according to Einstein’s theory of general relativity. For this to be possible, the authors use mathematical functions called elliptic functions that can describe orbits, including the familiar circular, elliptical, parabolic and hyperbolic orbits. Some readers can put aside technical terms such as “Schwarzschild metric” which simply specifies a certain condition that excludes cases such as a spinning black hole, and “Parameter Space” which simply specifies all possible energy, momentum of an object or light and the character of the massive body (black hole included), and go directly to see the mathematical expressions that describe the trajectories, and the relevant graphs.
Orbital Mechanics for Engineering Students, Second Edition, provides an introduction to the basic concepts of space mechanics. These include vector kinematics in three dimensions; Newton’s laws of motion and gravitation; relative motion; the vector-based solution of the classical two-body problem; derivation of Kepler’s equations; orbits in three dimensions; preliminary orbit determination; and orbital maneuvers. The book also covers relative motion and the two-impulse rendezvous problem; interplanetary mission design using patched conics; rigid-body dynamics used to characterize the attitude of a space vehicle; satellite attitude dynamics; and the characteristics and design of multi-stage launch vehicles. Each chapter begins with an outline of key concepts and concludes with problems that are based on the material covered. This text is written for undergraduates who are studying orbital mechanics for the first time and have completed courses in physics, dynamics, and mathematics, including differential equations and applied linear algebra. Graduate students, researchers, and experienced practitioners will also find useful review materials in the book. NEW: Reorganized and improved discusions of coordinate systems, new discussion on perturbations and quarternions NEW: Increased coverage of attitude dynamics, including new Matlab algorithms and examples in chapter 10 New examples and homework problems
