Klappentext "This unique volume is unmatched in breadth and depth, providing detailed coverage of topics ranging from orbital dynamics to formation flight to attitude dynamics to control and navigation. The authors bring a fresh, unified perspective to the field with a groundbreaking textbook that is destined to become the favorite of students at all levels."--Dennis S. Bernstein, Aerospace Engineering Department, The University of Michigan, USAThis textbook presents a rigorous, yet practical and accessible introduction to the fundamentals of spacecraft dynamics and control. Written for engineering students and practicing engineers with a basic background in mathematics and mechanics, it is suitable for both upper-year undergraduate courses and first graduate courses, as well as self study. The material covered is comprehensive; all the pertinent aspects of a spacecraft mission including orbital dynamics, attitude dynamics, and control are discussed. Additionally, advanced topics such as low-thrust trajectory analysis, nonlinear spacecraft attitude control, and navigation techniques are introduced. A unique feature of this textbook is the presentation of classical control systems design techniques using spacecraft attitude control as the motivating control design objective.Key features:* A comprehensive reference on the fundamentals of orbital dynamics, attitude dynamics, and control* Classical control systems design is explained and motivated by the control of a spacecraft's attitude* Practical aspects of spacecraft dynamics and control are discussed, included sensor and actuator operation, digital implementation of controllers, and the effects of unmodelled dynamics* Numerous illustrations accompany the text, helping the reader to better understand the material Zusammenfassung Provides the basics of spacecraft orbital dynamics plus attitude dynamics and control, using vectrix notation Spacecraft Dynamics and Control: An Introduction presents the fundamentals of classical control in the context of spacecraft attitude control.
