A method is developed to study the stability of periodic motions of the three-body problem in a rotating frame of reference, based on the notion of surface of section. The method is linear and involves the computation of a 4×4 variational matrix by integrating numerically the differential equations for time intervals of the order of a period. Several properties of this matrix are proved and also it is shown that for a symmetric periodic motion it can be computed by integrating for half the period only.This linear stability analysis is used to study the stability of a family of periodic motions of three bodies with equal masses, in a rotating frame of reference. This family represents motion such that two bodies revolve around each other and the third body revolves around this binary system in the same direction to a distance which varies along the members of the family. It was found that a large part of the family, corresponding to the case where the distance of the third body from the binary system is larger than the dimensions of the binary system, represents stable motion. The nonlinear effects to the linear stability analysis are studied by computing the intersections of several perturbed orbits with the surface of sectiony 3=0. In some cases more than 1000 intersections are computed. These numerical results indicate that linear stability implies stability to all orders, and this is true for quite large perturbations.  相似文献

The motion of a point mass in the J 2 problem is generalized to that of a rigid body in a J 2 gravity field. The linear and nonlinear stability of the classical type of relative equilibria of the rigid body, which have been obtained in our previous paper, are studied in the framework of geometric mechanics with the second-order gravitational potential. Non-canonical Hamiltonian structure of the problem, i.e., Poisson tensor, Casimir functions and equations of motion, are obtained through a Poisson reduction process by means of the symmetry of the problem. The linear system matrix at the relative equilibria is given through the multiplication of the Poisson tensor and Hessian matrix of the variational Lagrangian. Based on the characteristic equation of the linear system matrix, the conditions of linear stability of the relative equilibria are obtained. The conditions of nonlinear stability of the relative equilibria are derived with the energy-Casimir method through the projected Hessian matrix of the variational Lagrangian. With the stability conditions obtained, both the linear and nonlinear stability of the relative equilibria are investigated in details in a wide range of the parameters of the gravity field and the rigid body. We find that both the zonal harmonic J 2 and the characteristic dimension of the rigid body have significant effects on the linear and nonlinear stability. Similar to the classical attitude stability in a central gravity field, the linear stability region is also consisted of two regions that are analogues of the Lagrange region and the DeBra-Delp region respectively. The nonlinear stability region is the subset of the linear stability region in the first quadrant that is the analogue of the Lagrange region. Our results are very useful for the studies on the motion of natural satellites in our solar system.  相似文献

We numerically study a version of the synchronous circular restricted three-body problem, where an infinitesimal mass body is moving under the Newtonian gravitational forces of two massive bodies. The primary body is an oblate spheroid while the secondary is an elongated asteroid of a combination of two equal masses forming a rotating dipole which is synchronous to the rotation of the primaries of the classic circular restricted three-body problem. In this paper, we systematically examine the existence, positions, and linear stability of the equilibrium points for various combinations of the model's parameters. We observe that the perturbing forces have significant effects on the positions and stability of the equilibrium points as well as the regions where the motion of the particle is allowed. The allowed regions of motion as determined by the zero-velocity surface and the corresponding isoenergetic curves as well as the positions of the equilibrium points are given. Finally, we numerically study the binary system Luhman-16 by computing the positions of the equilibria and their stability as well as the allowed regions of motion of the particle. The corresponding families of periodic orbits emanating from the collinear equilibrium points are computed along with their stability properties.  相似文献

We consider the motion of a spacecraft which consists of a rigid body with a thin viscoelastic circular ring attached at some point of the body. Assuming that the stiffness of the ring is large and the dissipation is small enough, we study the quasi-static motion which is set in after free elastic oscillations have damped. In particular, the steady-state motions in the weakly elliptic orbit are found and their stability is investigated.  相似文献

The motion of two mutually-attracting gyrostats in the Newtonian field of forces of a major body is considered. The equilibrium positions of the translational motions are found out and grouped, relative to the attractive body, in collinear and equilateral equilibria. The stationary orientations at these points are also detected and the stability of all equilibrium-configurations is investigated by means of the Routh-Hurwitz criterion  相似文献

Celestial body rotation about its center of mass, taking into account the body orbit evolution, is considered. Non-linear evolution equations of motion are constructed. Empirical Cassini's laws describing the Moon motion result from these equations as their stationary points. Bifurcation conditions of steady motions are written out and conditions of their stability are investigated. Hypothesis of Mercury's resonance motion analogous to the motion by Cassini is discussed. Consequences of this hypothesis are considered.The first information including the results mentioned in the paper was previously published in preprint [1].  相似文献

A rigorously valid nonlinear oscillator analog of the torque-free rotational dynamics of a general rigid body is presented. The analog consists of threeuncoupled nonlinear oscillators, the motion of each being governed by a second order nonlinear ordinary differential equation of the Duffing type. The nonlinear oscillator analog and three associated phase planes, as established herein, provide a new basis for analysis and visualization of rigid body dynamics. The phase planes are particularly useful in providing complete visibility of the motion's limiting cases and stability properties.  相似文献

A problem of attitude motion of the smallest body for the restricted three-body problem is analyzed. Axial symmetry is assumed for the body, and attention is focused on the case in which the symmetry axis is normal to the orbit plane. For libration point satellites, results are similar to those for a satellite in orbit about a single body. However, for orbit equilibrium points lying on the line joining the two larger bodies, attitude stability results depart markedly from those for the two-body problem.This paper presents the results of one phase of research carried out at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, under Contract No. NAS 7-100, sponsored by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.  相似文献

The model of the circular restricted problem of three bodies is used to investigate the sensitivity of the third body motion when it is given a positional or velocity deviation away from the L4 triangular libration point. The x-axis is used as a criteria for defining the stability of the third body motion. Poincaré's surfaces of section are used to compare the regions of periodic, quasi-periodic and stochastic motion to the trajectories found using the definition of stability (not crossing the x-axis) defined in this study. Values of the primary/secondary mass ratios () ranging from 0 to the linear critical value 0.038521... are investigated. Using this new form of stability measure, it is determined that certain values of are more stable than others. The results of this study are compared, and found, to give agreeable results to other studies which investigate commensurabilities of the long and short period terms of periodic orbits.  相似文献

The dynamic behavior of a small tri-axial body acted upon by the Newtonian forces of N major bodies of spherical symmetry which forma planar ring configuration is studied in this paper. The equations of the translational-rotational motion of the minor body are derived and its equilibrium states as well as their stability are investigated. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

This paper studies the motion of an infinitesimal mass around triangular equilibrium points in the elliptic restricted three body problem assuming bigger primary as a source of radiation and the smaller one a triaxial rigid body. A practical application of this case could be the study of motion of a satellite under the effect of Sun and Earth. We have exploited the method of averaging used by Grebnikov (Nauka, Moscow, revised 1986) throughout the analysis of stability of the system. The critical mass ratio depends on the radiation pressure, oblateness, eccentricity and semi major axis of the elliptic orbits and the range of stability decreases as the radiation parameter increases.  相似文献

Nowadays the scientific community considers that more than a third of the asteroids are double. The study of the stability of these systems is quite complex, because of their irregular shapes and tumbling rotations, and requires a full body–full body approach. A particular case is analysed here, when the secondary body is sufficiently small and distant from the primary to be considered as a point mass satellite. Gravitational resonances (between the revolution of the satellite and the rotation of the asteroid) of a small body in fast or slow rotation around a rigid ellipsoid are studied. The same model can be used for the motion of a probe around an irregular asteroid. The gravitational potential induced by the primary body is modelled by the MacMillan potential. The stability of the satellite is measured thanks to the MEGNO indicator (Mean Exponential Growth Factor of Nearby Orbits). We present stability maps in the plane (\fracbd, \fraccd){\left(\frac{b}{d}, \frac{c}{d}\right)} where d, b, and c are the three semi-axes of the ellipsoid shaping the asteroid. Special stable conic-like curves are detected on these maps and explained by an analytical model, based on a simplification of the MacMillan potential for some specific resonances (1 : 1 and 2 : 1). The efficiency of the MEGNO to detect stability is confirmed.  相似文献

Different types of propulsion systems with continuous and purely radial thrust, whose modulus depends on the distance from a massive body, may be conveniently described within a single mathematical model by means of the concept of generalized sail. This paper discusses the existence and stability of artificial equilibrium points maintained by a generalized sail within an elliptic restricted three-body problem. Similar to the classical case in the absence of thrust, a generalized sail guarantees the existence of equilibrium points belonging only to the orbital plane of the two primaries. The geometrical loci of existing artificial equilibrium points are shown to coincide with those obtained for the circular three body problem when a non-uniformly rotating and pulsating coordinate system is chosen to describe the spacecraft motion. However, the generalized sail has to provide a periodically variable acceleration to maintain a given artificial equilibrium point. A linear stability analysis of the artificial equilibrium points is provided by means of the Floquet theory.  相似文献

A symplectic mapping model for the co-orbital motion (Sándor et al., 2002, Cel. Mech. Dyn. Astr. 84, 355) in the circular restricted three body problem is used to derive Nekhoroshev stability estimates for the Sun–Jupiter Trojans. Following a brief review of the analytical part of Nekhoroshev theory, a direct method is developed to construct formal integrals of motion in symplectic mappings without use of a normal form. Precise estimates are given for the region of effective stability based on the optimization of the size of the remainder of the formal series. The stability region found for t=1010 yrs corresponds to a libration amplitude Dp=10.6°. About 30% of asteroids with accurately known proper elements (Milani, 1993, Cel. Mech. Dyn. Astron. 57, 59), at low eccentricities and inclinations, are included within this region. This represents an improvement with respect to previous estimates given in the literature. The improvement is due partly to the choice of better variables, but also to the use of a mapping model, which is a simplification of the circular restricted three body problem.  相似文献

The motion of a satellite around a planet can be studied by the Hill model, which is a modification of the restricted three body problem pertaining to motion of a satellite around a planet. Although the dynamics of the circular Hill model has been extensively studied in the literature, only few results about the dynamics of the elliptic model were known up to now, namely the equations of motion and few unstable families of periodic orbits. In the present study we extend these results by computing a large set of families of periodic orbits and their linear stability and classify them according to their resonance condition. Although most of them are unstable, we were able to find a considerable number of stable ones. By computing appropriate maps of dynamical stability, we study the effect of the planetary eccentricity on the stability of satellite orbits. We see that, even for large values of the planetary eccentricity, regular orbits can be found in the vicinity of stable periodic orbits. The majority of irregular orbits are escape orbits.  相似文献

We consider the problem of the motion of a zero-mass body in the vicinity of a system of three gravitating bodies forming a central configuration.We study the case where two gravitating bodies of equal mass lie on the same straight line and rotate around the central body with the same angular velocity. Equations for calculating the equilibrium positions in this system have been derived. The stability of the equilibrium points for a system of three gravitating bodies is investigated. We show that, as in the case of libration points for two bodies, the collinear points are unstable; for the triangular points, there exists a ratio of the mass of the central body to the masses of the extreme bodies, 11.720349, at which stability is observed.  相似文献

We investigate the stability of the periodic motion of a satellite, a rigid body, relative to the center of mass in a central Newtonian gravitational field in an elliptical orbit. The orbital eccentricity is assumed to be low. In a circular orbit, this periodic motion transforms into the well-known motion called hyperboloidal precession (the symmetry axis of the satellite occupies a fixed position in the plane perpendicular to the radius vector of the center of mass relative to the attractive center and describes a hyperboloidal surface in absolute space, with the satellite rotating around the symmetry axis at a constant angular velocity). We consider the case where the parameters of the problem are close to their values at which a multiple parametric resonance takes place (the frequencies of the small oscillations of the satellite’s symmetry axis are related by several second-order resonance relations). We have found the instability and stability regions in the first (linear) approximation at low eccentricities.  相似文献

The equations of motion of the heavy rigid body around the fixed point in Kovalevskaya's case were reduced to equations of plane motion of the fictive point under the action of some potential force. The periodic solution of the new equations was found and their stability discussed.  相似文献
