Download or read book Regularization in Orbital Mechanics written by Javier Roa. This book was released on 2017-09-25. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regularized equations of motion can improve numerical integration for the propagation of orbits, and simplify the treatment of mission design problems. This monograph discusses standard techniques and recent research in the area. While each scheme is derived analytically, its accuracy is investigated numerically. Algebraic and topological aspects of the formulations are studied, as well as their application to practical scenarios such as spacecraft relative motion and new low-thrust trajectories.
