Abstract The number of malfunctioning satellites is dramatically increasing with the development of space
technology in recent decades. These malfunctioning satellites are normally in rotating or tumbling states
due to residual angular momentum, gravity gradient, et al, making direct capture impossible. Therefore, stabilizing
these objects within acceptable angular velocities is an indispensable stage for in-orbit capture. The contact method
using a flexible device (e.g., brush or rod) to detumble these satellites is considered to be safe and efficient enough.
However, it is extremely time-consuming to solve the dynamic model of the detumbling system, which is a… More >
