Analytical study of dynamics of manned rotating space stations under various steady-state and transient excitations, such as docking impacts, attitude system torques, and crew motions; basic equations of motion for spinning station are developed and expressions simulating applied disturbances introduced; gyroscopic wobble damper and proportional jet damper are represented and motion of station under external disturbances determined with and without effects of these stability systems; computer results for toroidal station, and effects of variation in moment of inertia distribution.
