Robust Control of Spacecraft Formation Flying Using Optimal Sliding Mode [PDF]

فصلنامه علوم و فناوری فضایی, 2013
In this paper, in order to control the relative motion for spacecraft formation flying, an optimal sliding mode controller is presented. This controller is designed based on the linearized equations of relative motion in circular orbit and applied to ...

Temperature‐Dependent Kinetics of Plasma‐Based CO2 Conversion: Interplay of Electron‐Driven and Thermal‐Driven Chemistry

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The transformation of CO2 into chemical building blocks is essential for a net‐zero energy future. Plasma‐chemical processing offers promising potential to achieve this. Here, we explore a temperature‐dependent plasma‐chemical reaction mechanism, revealing a shift from electron‐driven to thermal‐driven CO2 conversion regimes.

Finite‐Difference Reduced Transfer Matrix Method for Multibody Systems With Rotating Beams

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multibody systems with rotating beams serve as critical simplified models of core components in engineering systems; however, existing analytical and numerical methods have limitations in analyzing their complex dynamic behavior. This paper proposes the Finite‐Difference Reduced Multibody System Transfer Matrix Method (FD‐RMSTMM), which ...

Benchmark Problems for Spacecraft Formation Flying Missions [PDF]

AIAA Guidance, Navigation, and Control Conference and Exhibit, 2003
To provide high-level focus to distributed space system flight dynamics and control research, several benchmark problems are suggested. These problems are not specific to any current or proposed mission, but instead are intended to capture high-level features that would be generic to many similar missions.

An Open Database of Lunar Regolith and Simulants Properties

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lunar regolith, the layer of unconsolidated material covering the Moon's surface, is central to the science and technology developed for the Moon, notably related to in‐situ science investigations, resource utilization, surface infrastructure, and mobility systems.

Sliding Mode Control in Aerospace Applications: A Survey

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sliding mode control (SMC) enjoys robustness to matched and unmatched (in the case of minimum phase input‐output dynamics) bounded perturbations, and finite time convergence. Second‐order and higher‐order sliding mode control systems (2‐SMC/HOSMC) retain all the advantages of sliding mode control, but in addition can be applied to systems of ...

Stair‐Climbing Wheelchairs for Enhanced Mobility: A Comprehensive Review of Fundamental Mechanisms, Design Concepts, and Performance Analysis

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People with physical disabilities face significant mobility challenges while climbing uneven surfaces and staircases. In these circumstances, traditional wheelchairs do not provide stable, safely controlled mobility, underscoring the importance of building superior stair‐climbing wheelchairs for both medical and infrastructure purposes.

Decentralized attitude synchronization of spacecraft formations under complex communication topology

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2016
The attitude synchronizing of formation flying spacecrafts is an essential ingredient in almost all practical situations. However, thus far no control scheme was proposed for synchronizing the attitude of multiple spacecraft without a prescribed ...
