Dynamics and control of orbiting deployable multimodule manipulators

This thesis focuses on the planar dynamics and control of a variable geometry manipulator which may be used in space- as well as ground-based operations. The system is composed of a flexible orbiting platform supporting two modules connected in a chain topology. Each module consists of two links:...
