The Transformation Operator Approach to Multi-Body Dynamics.

Abstract

This report describes an algebraical formulation of the classical dynamics of a system composed of several subsystems. This new approach to dynamics is based on Kron's method of subspaces, and it is particularly convenient for spacecraft dynamics formulations. The report consists of three parts: the first part presents the theoretical development, and the subsequent two parts present examples and applications.
