title: Solution of optimal continuous low-thrust transfer using Lie transforms creator: Sanjurjo Rivo, Manuel creator: Scheeres, D. creator: Lara, M. creator: Peláez Álvarez, Jesús subject: Astronomy subject: Aeronautics description: This paper addresses the problem of optimal constant continuous low-thrust transfer in the context of the restricted two-body problem (R2BP). Using the Pontryagin’s principle, the problem is formulated as a two point boundary value problem (TPBVP) for a Hamiltonian system. Lie transforms obtained through the Deprit method allow us to obtain the canonical mapping of the phase flow as a series in terms of the order of magnitude of the thrust applied. The reachable set of states starting from a given initial condition using optimal control policy is obtained analytically. In addition, a particular optimal transfer can be computed as the solution of a non-linear algebraic equation.
