About this title

Synopsis

Advanced Problems and Methods for Space Flight Optimization delves into optimization theory and its practical application in space flight. This comprehensive work explores various topics such as optimal guidance, general mathematical optimization methods, optimal transfer trajectories, and design parameter optimization. Structured into 15 chapters, it commences with an overview of the approximate analytic solution for minimum fuel guidance from a hyperbolic orbit to a definite circular orbit. The text then calculates the maximum range trajectory for a glider entering Earth's atmosphere at supercircular velocity. Other chapters examine economical transfers between Keplerian orbits, showcasing significant progress in the time-free case. The book also explores the Pontryagin Maximum Principle for optimal transfers between arbitrary coaxial ellipses. The concluding chapter focuses on synthesizing minimum-fuel controls for a class of aerospace control problems. This book serves as an invaluable resource for aerospace engineers.
