On coupled librational dynamics of gravity oriented axi-symmetric satellites

The influence of inertia, eccentricity and atmospheric forces on the attitude dynamics of gravity oriented, non-spinning, axi-symmetric satellites, executing general librational motion is investigated using analytical, numerical and analog techniques. The problem is studied in the increasing order...
