Stable attitude dynamics of planar helio-stable and drag-stable sails
Narcís Miguel, Camilla Colombo
In this paper the planar orbit and attitude dynamics of an uncontrolled spacecraft is studied, taking on-board a deorbiting device. Solar and drag sails with the same shape are con…

Attitude and orbit coupling of planar helio-stable solar sails
Narcis Miguel, Camilla Colombo
The coupled attitude and orbit dynamics of solar sails is studied. The shape of the sail is a simplified quasi-rhombic-pyramid that provides the structure helio-stablility properti…
