Flight Performance Handbook for Orbital Operations: Orbital Mechanics and Astrodynamics Formulae, Theorems, Techniques, and Applications

open access: yes, 1961
This handbook provides parametric data useful both to the space vehicle designer and mission analyst. It provides numerical and analytical relationships between missions and gross vehicle characteristics as a function of performance parameters.

Energy-conserving methods for Hamiltonian boundary value problems and applications in astrodynamics

open access: yes, 2015
We introduce new methods for the numerical solution of general Hamiltonian boundary value problems. The main feature of the new formulae is to produce numerical solutions along which the energy is precisely conserved, as is the case with the analytical ...

Long term nonlinear propagation of uncertainties in perturbed geocentric dynamics using automatic domain splitting

open access: yes, 2014
Current approaches to uncertainty propagation in astrodynamics mainly refer tolinearized models or Monte Carlo simulations. Naive linear methods fail in nonlinear dynamics, whereas Monte Carlo simulations tend to be computationallyintensive. Differential

Automatic Rendering of Astrodynamics Expressions for Efficient Evaluation

open access: yes, 1998
This publication is posted with the permission of the American Astronautical Society.In this paper, we describe the automatic rendering of expressions computed using symbolic manipulation. Computations from astrodynamics frequently can be put in a fixed

Search for less disturbed regions for spacecrafts in planetary systems

open access: yes, 2016
The design of scientific orbits for applications in space missions require a deep understanding about how the perturbations acting in the spacecraft will affect its dynamics.

Using mission analysis software GMAT to develop skills in astrodynamics

open access: yes, 2017
Learning about the geometry and kinematics of orbital motion (or 'astrodynamics') is challenging due to its 3D nature. To address this, the University of Bristol have developed 3D orbit visualization exercises using a free NASA tool called 'General ...
