Adams and Roy F. Brissenden Langley Research Center Langley Field, Va. NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION WASHINGTON November 1960 . NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION TECHNICAL NOTE D-626 SATELLITE ATTITUDE CONTROL USING A COMBINATION OF INERTIA WHEELS AND A BAR MAGNET By James J. Adams and Roy F. Brissenden SUMMARY The use of inertia wheels to control the attitude of a satellite has currently aroused much interest. The stability of such a system has been studied in this investigation. A single-degree-of-freedom analysis indicates that a response with suitable dynamic characteristics and pre- cise control can be achieved by commanding the angular velocity of the inertia wheel with an error signal that is the sum of the attitude error, the attitude rate, and the integral of the attitude error. A digital computer was used to study the three-degree-of-freedom response to step displacements, and the results indicate that the cross-coupling effects of inertia coupling and precession coupling had no effect on system sta- bility. A study was also made of the use of a bar magnet to supplement the inertia wheels by providing a means of removing any momentum intro- duced into the system by disturbances such as aerodynamic torques. A study of a case with large aerodynamic torques, with a typical orbit, indicated that the magnet was a suitable device for supplying the essen- tial trimming force.

  • Some Considerations on Quantities of Dimension One in Oscillatory Motions
    Some considerations on quantities of dimension one in oscillatory motions Leonardo Gariboldi Dipartimento di Fisica, Università degli Studi di Milano, Via Celoria 16, 20133, Milano, Italy. E-mail: [email protected] (Received 13 February 2012, accepted 27 May 2012) Abstract The habit of not writing a multiplicative factor of dimension one leads to equations, which, though dimensionally correct, can pose some problems to most students as for the analysis of the units of measurement of the written physical quantities. The proposed analysis of the derivation of the equations for a simple oscillator and a forced oscillator with damping shows how to handle with the units of measurement. Similar considerations can be done for the formula of error propagation for oscillating functions. Keywords: Units of measurement, Radian, Oscillatory motion. Resumen El hábito de no escribir un factor multiplicativo de una dimensión conduce a las ecuaciones, las cuales, aunque de dimensiones correctas, pueden plantear algunos problemas a la mayoría de los estudiantes como para el análisis de las unidades de medida de las cantidades físicas escritas. El análisis propuesto de la derivación de las ecuaciones para un oscilador simple y un oscilador forzado con amortiguamiento muestra cómo controlar a las unidades de medida. Se pueden hacer consideraciones similares para la fórmula de propagación de errores para funciones oscilantes. Palabras clave: Unidades de medición, Radián, Movimiento oscilatorio. PACS: 01.40.Fk, 01.40.gb, O6.20.Dk ISSN 1870-9095 I. INTRODUCTION II. A PROBLEM WITH THE UNIT OF MEASUREMENT OF THE ANGULAR The study of oscillatory motions in the most common FREQUENCY physics textbooks used in undergraduate courses (see, e.g., [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]) is based on definitions and laws described in The frequency ν of an oscillatory motion is defined as the previous chapters (e.g.: Cinematic, Newton’s laws) and on number of oscillation cycles per time.

  • Technical Standards Board Standard
    TECHNICAL REV. STANDARDS TSB 003 MAY1999 BOARD Issued 1965-06 400 Commonwealth Drive, Warrendale, PA 15096-0001 STANDARD Revised 1999-05 Superseding TSB 003 JUN92 Submitted for recognition as an American National Standard Rules for SAE Use of SI (Metric) Units Foreword—SI denotes The International System of Units (Le Système International d’Unités). SI was established in 1960, under the Treaty of the Meter, by Resolutions and Recommendations of the General Conference on Weights and Measures (Conférence Générale des Poids et Mesures, CGPM) and the International Committee for Weights and Measures (Comité International des Poids et Mesures, CIPM) on The International System of Units. The abbreviation "SI" is used in all languages. In 1969, the SAE Board of Directors issued a directive that "SAE will include SI units in SAE Standards and other technical reports." During the ensuing several decades, SAE metric policy evolved and implementation progressed. The SAE’s current metric policy is, "Operating Boards shall not use any weights and measures system other than metric (SI), except when conversion is not practical, or where a conflicting world industry practice exists." Principal driving forces for SAE metrication were: worldwide movement to metric units; enactment of United States Federal metric legislation and the resultant national metrication activity; the international trend in industry and business throughout the world, and the growing international scope of SAE. Currently, the widespread, strong support for international standards harmonization is another key motivating factor in the global metrication movement. TSB 003 (formerly SAE J916) has been updated periodically, to reflect SAE metric policy evolution—as well as developments in the specific, formal content of SI; and in the correct, consistent usage and application of SI...which sometimes is referred to as "the modern version of the metric measurement system." The content of TSB 003 is consistent with international and U.S.

  • Linear and Angular Velocity Angular Displacement
    Lesson 6.2 Linear and Angular Velocity Angular Displacement As a circular object rotates counterclockwise about its center, an object at the edge moves through an angle relative to its starting position known as the angular displacement, or angle of rotation. y θ A x 0 B Example 1 Determine the angular displacement in radians of 6.5 revolutions. Round to the nearest tenth. Each revolution equals 2 radians. For 6.5 revolutions, the number of radians is 6.5 2 or 13 . 13 radians equals about 40.8 radians. Angular Velocity The ratio of change in a central angle to the time required for the change is known as angular velocity. Angular velocity is represented by the lowercase Greek letter ω (omega). y θ θ ω A x t 0 Where θ is the angular B displacement in radians Example 2 Determine the angular velocity if 4.8 revolutions are completed in 4 seconds. Round to the nearest tenth. The angular displacement is 4.8 2 or 9.6 radians. θ 9.6 ω t 4 7.539822369 Use a calculator. The angular velocity is about 7.5 radians per second. Dimensional Analysis In dimensional analysis, unit labels are treated as mathematical factors and can be DIVIDED OUT. Example 3 AMUSEMENT PARK Jack climbs on a horse that is 12 feet from the center of a merry-go-round. The merry-go-round makes 3 ¼ rotations per minute. Determine Jack’s angular velocity in radians per second. Round to the nearest hundredth. The merry-go-round makes 3 ¼ or 3.25 revolutions per minute.

ON THE NATURAL FREQUENCIES OF A BODY-TAIL COMBINATION By Norman R. Bergrun and Paul A. Nickel SUMMARY Flight experiments with a freely falling model have been conducted to observe the effects of steady rolling on the pitching and yawing motions of a body-tail combination. Time histories of the pitching and yawing motions show that steady rolling introduces into the pitch oscil­ lations the yawing motions, and into the yaw oscillations, the pitching motions. The observed effects of steady rolling on the values of fre­ quencies are compared with those predicted by theory for damping and for no damping. When damping is included, the calculated frequencies are in good agreement with the observed frequencies, although a good first-order approximation of the frequencies may be obtained by neglect­ ing damping.

  • The Third-Millennium International System of Units
    RIVISTA DEL NUOVO CIMENTO Vol. 42, N. 2 2019 DOI 10.1393/ncr/i2019-10156-2 The third-millennium International System of Units W. Bich Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca Metrologica, INRiM - Torino, Italia received 16 November 2018 Summary. — The International System of Units, SI, in use since 1946, was for- mally established in October 1960 by the eleventh Conf´erence G´en´erale des Poids et Mesures, CGPM, with its resolution 12. In the past years, several changes have been made to the system. The 26th Conference, on 16th November 2018, adopted a revised SI, due to come into force on 20 May 2019. This revision was by far the most radical in the history of the SI. In this paper, I review the system from its origin to the present time, discuss the needs that suggested, and the conditions that allowed such an epochal change, and present the SI of the third millennium. 50 1.
