Design criteria and equations of motion for the de-spin of a vehicle by the radial release of weights and cables of finite mass

<p>The equations of motion are derived for the de-spinning of a rigid body payload by the use of weights attached to the ends of unwinding cables of finite mass that are released when colinear with a radius of the payload.</p> === Master of Science
