At altitudes below 500 km, satellites experience a significant amount of aerodynamic drag
that can be utilized to stabilize satellites to align with the relative wind direction. Designing a …

CubeSats, and small satellites in general, being small and relatively light, are sensitive to
disturbance torques in the orbital environment. We developed a simulation tool that includes …

Probabilistic study of angular motion dynamics has been performed for CubeSat
nanosatellites with passive stabilization systems, including aerodynamic, aerodynamic …

This paper deals with the attitude motion of LEO satellites with deployable side panels
designed for passive aerodynamic stabilization in a rarefied atmosphere. The influence of …

This thesis addresses the problem of designing and evaluating passive satellite attitude
control systems for small satellites. Passive stabilization techniques such as Gravity Gradient …

This paper studies deorbiting using an analogue to the quasi-rhombic-pyramid concept for
planar motion. The focus is on maintaining a stable (meaning oscillatory) attitude close to …

В вероятностной постановке исследуется динамика углового движения наноспутников
формата CubeSat с пассивными системами стабилизации: аэродинамической …

Resonant modes of motion, manifested as a significant increase in the oscillation amplitude
of the spatial angle of attack, can result in the failure of the CubeSat mission. This paper is …

The QB50 Mission is a network of 36 CubeSats built by universities all over the world to
perform first-class science in the largely unexplored thermosphere around Earth. 28 QB50 …

This paper considers the features of motion of an aerodynamically stabilized CubeSat 6U
nanosatellite relative to the center of mass. We analyzed the possibility of resonant modes of …
