Internal Torques and Forces in Gyrostats with Magnetically Suspended Rotors
… model, we develop equations that describe the internal torques and forces that occur between the body and one of the attached wheels. We evaluate the transverse torques for the torque--free gyrostat and a gyrostat undergoing attitude maneuvers using momentum wheels and external torques. We then …

Solution of the two-point boundary value problems of optimal spacecraft rotational maneuvers
… spacecraft configurations with both external torques and/or internal torques. Necessary conditions for optimality are derived through Pontryagin’s principle; solutions to the problems are obtained numerically. Comparison studies using competing numerical methods and various choices of …
