T1 The Problem of Determination of Solutions of Motion Equations of Spacecraft with Low Thrust on Trajectories Close to Optimal, Obtained by the Averaging Method JF Journal of Automation and Information Sciences JO JAI(S) YR 2003 FD 2003-12-01 VO 35 IS 12 OP 12 AB We investigate the problem of construction of exact numerical solutions of motion equations of a spacecraft with low thrust engine, which realizes transfer between distant orbits in the Newton central gravity field. Approximate solution of the classical problem of mechanics of space flight about transfer with maximal payload under given launching mass is constructed by the averaging method. We discussed variants of determination of solutions of exact motion equations on trajectories, which move away not too much from the trajectory of the averaged solution. One of the suggested variants is shown for example of interorbital transfer with simultaneous changing of the major semiaxis, eccentricity and angle of orbit inclination.
