Intermediate-thrust arcs in Mayer's variational problem

From MaRDI portal





The author discusses the Mayer variational problem on optimal rocket flight in the Newtonian force field. The motion equations are taken in the form proposed in paper [{ A.~G.~Azizov} and { N.~A.~Korshunova}, Celest. Mech. 38, No. 4, 297--306 (1986; Zbl 0602.70017)]. For the intermediate-thrust arcs new classes of analytical solutions are obtained. A problem on determining the flight trajectory with a fixed time between given coaxial elliptic orbits in the central force field is conside red as example.
