Abstract: Dynamic equations describing the attitude motion of flexible spacecraft with scissored pairs of control moment gyroscopes are established. A nonlinear controller is designed to drive the flexible ...

Abstract: The slewing motion of a truss arm driven by a V-gimbaled control-moment gyro is studied. The V-gimbaled control-moment gyro consists of a pair of gyros that must precess synchronously. For ...

Abstract: A synchronization control strategy for a class of underactuated mechanical systems is proposed by using the energy shaping technique, aiming to achieve the required performance of the synchronization ...
