Development of Models for the Equations of Motion in the Solar System: Implementations and Applications
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2014-07-22)
Master thesis
Open AccessThe purpose of this MS-Thesis is to develop suitable semi-analytical quasiperiodic models for the equations of motion in the solar system, in the sense that the models obtained are quasiperiodic pertubations of the restricted ... -
Dynamics and control for continuous low-thrust spacecraft near collinear libration points
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2022-05-18)
Doctoral thesis
Open Access
Covenantee: Xīběi Gōngyè DàxuéDue to the rich dynamic properties of the equilibria of the Restricted Three Body Problem (RTBP), the libration point orbits (LPOs) around them are ideal locations for scientific missions. Fortunately, these invariant ... -
