Title On Steady Motions of a Rigid Body Bearing Three-Degree-of-Freedom Control Momentum Gyroscopes and Their Stability

Abstract Equations of motion are obtained for a rigid body bearing N three-degree-of-freedom control momentum gyroscopes in gimbals and the entire set of steady motions in a homogeneous external field is determined. The steady motion dependence on the magnitude of the system angular momentum is studied and a detailed analysis of the secular stability is performed.

In the case of dissipative forces acting in the gyroscope gimbal axes, the Barbashin-Krasovskii theorem is used to study stability in the sense of Lyapunov. It is shown that, depending on the angular momentum magnitude, either static states of the system or two motions corresponding to rotations of the bearing body about the axis of the greatest moment of inertia are asymptotically stable, while all the other stationary motions are unstable in the sense of Lyapunov.
Keywords rigid-body, control momentum gyroscope, steady motions, secular stability, stability in the sense of Lyapunov
