Advanced Space Propulsion : Technologies, Missions, and Computer Modeling
local_shippingShip to Me
Overview
Advanced Space Propulsion: Technologies, Missions, and Computer Modeling includes coverage of all these topics in an integrated manner. The volume, written by a team of sector-specific R&D experts, touches upon fundamentals cardinal to the understanding of i] Orbit theory and its implications for control, estimation, and optimization of trajectory and attitude, and ii] How each mission is designed (depending primarily on the mass of the payload, but also on how far from Earth the launch vehicle needs to go), and then succeeds in consolidating them with software and computer applications for simulations and modeling. The book continues with a discussion on the complete gamut of in-space propulsion power sources and concludes with both human and robotic mission-related case studies and future implementation examples. The outcome is a carefully calibrated and self-contained resource that will prove to be invaluable for graduate and senior undergraduate students, researchers, scientists, and engineering professionals alike.
