  • Abstract
    The development process for spacecraft control systems relies heavily on modelling and simulation tools for spacecraft dynamics. For this reason, there is an increasing need for adequate design tools in order to cope efficiently with tightening budgets for space missions. The aim of this paper is to discuss the main issues related to the modelling and simulation of satellite dynamics for control purposes, to present the results obtained so far in developing a Modelica library for spacecraft modelling and simulation and to illustrate them with a case study, currently being carried out for the SWARM ESA mission.
