Dynamics and control of autonomous space vehicles and robotics / Ranjan Vepa.

Presenting the established principles underpinning space robotics (conservation of momentum and energy, stability) with a thorough and modern approach, chapters build from general physical foundations through an extensive treatment of kinematics of multi-body systems, and then to conservation princi...
