Docking of a rigid spacecraft with unrestrained orbiting flexible structure

Abstract

A methodology for producing simulations of the docking of a rigid spacecraft with any unrestrained flexible structure was studied. A detailed algorithm for the simulation of the docking of a rigid body with a nonuniform unrestrained beam was sought. The values acquired during docking by the variables characterizing the motions of the rigid body and the unrestrained beam were sought.
