Abstract
  This paper deals with semi-analytical modeling and stability analysis of a coupled slosh-tank dynamics as a multibody system using the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). The sloshing motion of the liquid inside the tank is considered as the equivalent pendulum model. The nonlinear equations of the motion ...  Read More

Modeling and Control of Fuel Sloshing and its Effect on Spacecraft Attitude

M. Navabi; A. Davodi

Volume 11, Issue 4 , December 2018, , Pages 11-22

Abstract
  Sloshing phenomenon in spacecraft fuel tank during orbital maneuver, causes adverse effects on spacecraft attitude. Therefore, before orbital maneuvers, modeling fuel sloshing and determining appropriate method for controlling it has to be carried out. The aim of this paper is to model slosh dynamics ...  Read More
