Abstract

In this paper, a dynamics equation for Spacecraft has first been created using vector mechanics. Second, several attitude dynamics equations of spacecraft have been deduced. Third, a simulation of the coupled structure vibration–attitude dynamics evolution of China Space Station has been researched. Simulation results reveal the generating mechanism and evolutive law of the coupled structure vibration–attitude dynamics of spacecraft. Finally, a simplified experimental platform has been set up, and the experimental results verify the structure vibration–attitude dynamics evolution of the spacecraft and proposed experimental setup.
