RISChaos in a Spacecraft Attitude Maneuver Due to Time-Periodic Perturbations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We use Melnikov’s method to study the chaotic dynamics of an attitude transition maneuver of a torque-free rigid body in going from minor axis spin to major axis spin under the influence of ...
Heteroclinic Bifurcations in Rigid Bodies Containing Internally Moving Parts and a Viscous Damper
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Melnikov’s method is used to analytically study chaotic dynamics in an attitude transition maneuver of a torque-free rigid body in going from minor axis to major axis spin under the influence ...
