Novel coordinates for nonlinear multibody motion with applications to spacecraft dynamics and control /

Novel sets of attitude coordinates called the Stereographic Parameters (SPs) and configuration quasivelocity coordinates called the Eigenfactor Quasivelocities (EQVS) are discussed. The SPs are generated through stereographic projections of the Euler parameter constraint hypersphere onto hyperplanes...
