TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial motion of the system is studied in the gravity field of the Earth under the action of the space tug thruster, aerodynamic drag and the gravitational torque.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the mutual influence of the tether vibrations and the vibrations of flexible appendages during the thrusting phase of tethered deorbit of large, non-functional spacecraft.

TL;DR: In this article, a spatial motion of a large passive satellite (space debris) and a space tug connected by an elastic tether is considered, and major attention is given to a derivation of the equations of the motion based on the Lagrange formalism.

TL;DR: In this article, the attitude motion of a debris object with fuel residuals that can affect the safety of the debris transportation process is derived. And the system of linearized equations are introduced that can be used for short-term analysis.

TL;DR: In this article, the dynamics of the space debris with flexible appendages were derived using the Lagrange formalism, and several numerical examples were presented to illustrate the mutual influence of the oscillations of flexible appendage and the oscillation of a tether.
