Euler Angles (2)
Concept used in rotational θ about Yi Zi (parallel to r)
kinematics to describe body φ about X’
orientation w.r.t. inertial frame ψ about Zb Yaw
Sequence of three angles and Roll
Body
prescription for rotating one Xi
(parallel CM
reference frame into another
to v)
Can be defined as a transformation Pitch
matrix body/inertial as shown: TB/I (r x v direction)
Yi
Euler angles are non-unique and r
exact sequence is critical nadir
Goal: Describe kinematics of body-fixed
TB−/1I = TI / B = TBT/ I
Note: frame with respect to rotating local vertical

M = 0.1 Atm2 at 200 km orbit
T = 3 x 10-6 Nm
Solar Radiation Torque
r = Vector from Body CM
T = r×Fs to optical Center-of-Pressure (CP)
Fs = (1 + K ) Ps S
Fs = Solar Radiation pressure in
BODY FRAME coordinates
S = Frontal Area
I s = 1400 W/m 2 @ 1 A.U.
Is = Solar constant, depends on
Notes:
heliocentric altitude
(a) Torque is always ⊥ to sun line
(b) Independent of position or
velocity as long as in sunlight SUN
Internal Torque:
Notes:
(1) Momentum exchange between moving parts
has no effect on System H, but will affect
attitude control loops
