Chaotic Motion Of A Satellite Under Gravity And Aerodynamic Torque

Chaotic Motion of a Satellite under Gravity & Aerodynamic Torque by Dr. Rashmi Bhardwaj. The edition of this well ¿received text continues to provide coherent and comprehensive coverage of chaotic, non-linear planar oscillation of a satellite under gravity & aerodynamic torque. The main highlights are: * To discuss the chaos in non-planar oscillation of a satellite under the influence of aerodynamic torque in a circular orbit, when orbital plane of the satellite coincides with the equatorial plane of the Earth¿. * Hamiltonian Equations and function, Hyperbolic equilibrium points * Melnikov¿s function, homoclinic, heteroclinic & transversal points * Non- resonant planar motion * Resonant planar motion * Bogoliubov -Krylov- Mitropolsky (BKM) Method * Chaotic motion * Chirikov¿s criterion * Poincare¿s Surface of Section
