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 ...

Uncertainty Propagation and Filtering via the Koopman Operator in Astrodynamics

open access: yes
The Koopman Operator (KO) provides an analytical solution of dynamical systems in terms of orthogonal polynomials. This work exploits this representation to include the propagation of uncertainties, where the polynomials are modified to work with ...

A Novel Algorithm for Precise Orbit Determination Using a Single Satellite Laser Ranging System Within a Single Arc for Space Surveillance and Tracking

open access: yesAerospace
A satellite laser ranging (SLR) system uses lasers to measure the range from ground stations to space objects with millimeter-level precision. Recent advances in SLR systems have increased their use in space surveillance and tracking (SST).
