What is Three-dimensional Motion of a Large Flexible Satellite about?

Stability requirements for flexible satellites are found to include the well-known rigidbody stability criteria, and, in addition, requirements on the elastic and coupled rigidelastic motion. Summary--Utilizing a method for the stability analysis of coupled rigid-elastic systems, the effect of flexible antennas upon the stability of motion of a gravity-gradient satellite is investigated. The satellite is assumed to consist of a compact rigid-body containing four antennas located at right angles to each other, two in the orbit plane and two perpendicular to the orbit plane. The conditions for stability are found to include the well-known rigid-body stability criteria, and, in addition, requirements on the elastic and coupled rigidelastic motion.

Who reads Three-dimensional Motion of a Large Flexible Satellite?
