RESEARCH ON DYNAMICS OF FLIGHT VEHICLES.
Abstract
Brief summaries are given of research carried out on the following topics: Optimum transient riddance in damped linear systems; Geometrical properties in state space of linear differential equations with periodic coefficients; Performance and stability of hypervelocity aircraft flying on a minor circle; The use of strings and wires in gravity-gradient satellite configurations; Reference/text 'Dynamics of Atmospheric Flight'; Dynamics of rods with damping hinges; Rapid numerical determination of the instantaneous orientation of a rigid body.
