Preface
Flexible Spacecraft Dynamics, Control and Guidance is a text conceived as a guide to the design of attitude and orbit control systems (AOCS) for modern space vehicles. In addition to the various classic topics which we have reviewed from a modern perspective, this text deals with new issues of AOCS such as spacecraft flexibility, agility and guidance. Attitude and orbit control (AOC) is a discipline where engineers can study the equations governing attitude, orbital, and deformation dynamics of a satellite, methods to measure the status of the satellite and to determine the control actions to be implemented on board the satellite in order to get the desired dynamics, and technologies that allow the production of these control actions from measurements. The author’s intention is to provide a manual that allows a satellite designer or a student to learn a theoretical and practical engineering approach to the design of attitude and orbit control systems, providing a panoram
