Space Flight Dynamics
John Wiley & Sons Inc (Verlag)
978-1-119-15782-3 (ISBN)
This concise yet comprehensive book on space flight dynamics addresses all phases of a space mission: getting to space (launch trajectories), satellite motion in space (orbital motion, orbit transfers, attitude dynamics), and returning from space (entry flight mechanics). It focuses on orbital mechanics with emphasis on two-body motion, orbit determination, and orbital maneuvers with applications in Earth-centered missions and interplanetary missions.
Space Flight Dynamics presents wide-ranging information on a host of topics not always covered in competing books. It discusses relative motion, entry flight mechanics, low-thrust transfers, rocket propulsion fundamentals, attitude dynamics, and attitude control. The book is filled with illustrated concepts and real-world examples drawn from the space industry. Additionally, the book includes a “computational toolbox” composed of MATLAB M-files for performing space mission analysis.
Key features:
Provides practical, real-world examples illustrating key concepts throughout the book
Accompanied by a website containing MATLAB M-files for conducting space mission analysis
Presents numerous space flight topics absent in competing titles
Space Flight Dynamics is a welcome addition to the field, ideally suited for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students studying aerospace engineering.
Craig A. Kluever is C. W. LaPierre Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, University of Missouri-Columbia, USA. He has industry experience as an aerospace engineer on the Space Shuttle program and has performed extensive research at the University of Missouri in collaboration with NASA involving trajectory optimization, space mission design, entry flight mechanics, and guidance and control of aerospace vehicles.
