Modeling of a nanosatellite angular motion damping using hysteresis plate

Mathematical modeling of the angular motion of a CubeSat type nanosatellite with a passive magnetic attitude control system is carried out. The attitude control system consists of a permanent magnet and hysteresis dampers in the form of a plate or a set of rods. The parameters of hysteresis dampers are studied using laboratory facility. A comparative analysis of the damping time using the plate and a set of rods is presented.
