This course trains you in the skills needed to program specific orientation and achieve precise aiming goals for spacecraft moving through three dimensional space. First, we cover stability definitions of nonlinear dynamical systems, covering the difference between local and global stability. We then analyze and apply Lyapunov's Direct Method to prove these stability properties, and develop a nonlinear 3-axis attitude pointing control law using Lyapunov theory. Finally, we look at alternate feedback control laws and closed loop dynamics. After this course, you will be able to... * Differentiate between a range of nonlinear stability concepts * Apply Lyapunov's direct method to argue stability and convergence on a range of dynamical systems * Develop rate and attitude error measures for a 3-axis attitude control using Lyapunov theory * Analyze rigid body control convergence with unmodeled torqueالوحدات

Auto Summary
Explore the intricacies of spacecraft maneuvering with the "Control of Nonlinear Spacecraft Attitude Motion" course. This expert-level program delves into the realm of personal development, offering a specialized focus on achieving precise spacecraft orientation in three-dimensional space. Guided by Coursera, the course kicks off with an introduction to stability definitions of nonlinear dynamical systems, distinguishing between local and global stability. Learners will then master Lyapunov's Direct Method to validate these stability properties and will develop a robust nonlinear 3-axis attitude pointing control law using Lyapunov theory. The curriculum also explores alternative feedback control laws and examines closed-loop dynamics. Upon completion, participants will be equipped to: - Differentiate between various nonlinear stability concepts. - Utilize Lyapunov’s direct method to ensure stability and convergence across dynamical systems. - Formulate rate and attitude error measures for 3-axis control using Lyapunov theory. - Assess rigid body control convergence in the presence of unmodeled torque. The course spans 1860 minutes and is available through multiple subscription options: Starter, Professional, and Paid. Designed for those with an advanced understanding of the subject, this course is ideal for professionals seeking to sharpen their expertise in spacecraft attitude control.
