Resonant Rotations of a Dynamically Symmetric Satellite with a Ball Damper in a Circular Orbit

For a satellite with a ball damper, the effect of internal dissipation on rotational motion in the central gravitational field is studied. The equations of rotational motion of a dynamically symmetric satellite with a ball damper in an elliptical orbit are obtained. For the case of a circular orbit, using the averaging method, spatial resonant rotations of a dynamically symmetrical satellite with a ball damper were studied.
