On the attitude recovery of an underactuated spacecraft using two control moment gyroscopes

Attitude Control of an Underactuated Satellite Using Two Reaction Wheels

“…In this framework, some algorithms have been designed to control the angular velocity of some possible postfailure underactuated spacecraft configurations [1][2][3]. The attitude can still be controlled if the spacecraft is equipped with thrusters [4], control momentum gyroscopes [5], or reaction wheels [6].…”
