A comprehensive design procedure based on extremum seeking for minimum power demand formation e ight is presented, the rst with performance guarantees. The involves of a new wake robust hold autopilot and transformation closed-loop aircraft dynamics to form in which newly available rigorous applicable. applied Lockheed C-5s, extending use maximum large transports. By availableexperimental data C-5, model wakeis developed that models aerodynamic interference as feedback nonlinearities. Thus,...
A method to incorporate low-thrust propulsion into the invariant manifolds technique is presented in this paper. The introduced by means of special attainable sets that are used conjunction with define a first-guess solution. This later optimized more refined model where an optimal control formalism used. Planar low-energy transfers moon, as well spatial stable manifold halo orbits Earth–moon system, presented. These solutions not achievable via patched-conics methods or standard techniques....

This paper presents a state-dependent method for solving nonlinear, control-affine, finite-time optimal control problems. The problem is set in form and solved as sequence of time-varying linear-quadratic regulators, which an approach based on state transition matrices has been developed. novelty the consists possibility managing number different coefficient factorizations uncontrolled dynamics, use with various methods. At each iteration, nonlinear programming to select combination that...
The H2020 ReDSHIFT project aims at finding passive means to mitigate the proliferation of space debris. This goal is pursued by a twofold research activity based on theoretical astrodynamics, computer simulations and analysis legal aspects debris, coupled with an experimental advanced additive manufacturing (3D printing) applied production novel small satellite. Several different related design debris compliant spacecraft are treated, including shielding, area augmentation devices for...
