Abstract

Attitude control Control systems Error correction Limit-cycles Linear feedback control systems Mathematical model Nonlinear control systems Nonlinear dynamical systems Regulators Space vehicles
We consider the attitude regulation of multibody flexible space structures via linear regulators. Prior experience indicated that such systems may have a severely limited domain of attraction. We show that for the class of systems of interest to us such limitations can be associated with the presence of a nearby subcritical Hopf bifurcation.
