Control of the Robot-Manipulator When Changing Fuel Tanks of the Geostationary Satellite Propulsion Unit

Abstract

Methods have been developed for control of a space robot-manipulator when changing fuel tanks of the propulsion unit while simultaneously stabilizing the angular motion of the robot mechanical mated with a geostationary satellite. The requirements for the electromechanical drives of the robot manipulator are determined and the results on computer simulation of dynamic processes are presented.
