This design survey summarizes the history of the Orbiting Geophysical Observatories' (OGO) Attitude Control Subsystem (ACS) from the proposal phase through current flight experience. Problems encountered in design, fabrication, test, and on orbit are discussed. It is hoped that the experiences of the OGO program related here will aid future designers.
Long term effects model evaluation of meteoritic impact against lunar surface compared with analyses of Lunar Orbiter photographs
Computer control of nonlinear systems with varying performance specifications, using Popov stability and nonlinear programming
Hydrostatic stability and damping characteristics of perforated plates and screens for passive propellant control schemes from drop tower tests
Systematic application of response spectral analysis and other analyses determine damping sensitivity of flight environment and candidate laboratory tests. Computerized comparison is made between response spectrum for flight environment, or enveloping spectra for collection of flight events, and response spectrum for candidate laboratory test.
