The plane motion in a circular orbit of a tethered system consisting of a space tug and a nonoperational spacecraft with propellant outage is considered, and the system motion with respect to its center of mass under the action of the gravitational torque and a constant driving force of the space tug is studied. Lagrangian formalism is used to construct the nonlinear equations of motion and the first-order approximation equations. An analysis of the frequencies and mode shapes permits determining a combination of the system parameters for which the deviation angles of the tether and the towed object do not attain significant values. The results can be used to analyze the behavior and the choice of theparameters of the tethered transport systemintended for the space debriswithdrawal from the orbit (upper stages of launchers and nonoperational satellites).

We develop a quaternion method for regularizing the differential equations of the perturbed spatial restricted three-body problem by using the Kustaanheimo–Stiefel variables, which is methodologically closely related to the quaternion method for regularizing the differential equations of perturbed spatial two-body problem, which was proposed by the author of the present paper.

A survey of papers related to the regularization of the differential equations of the two- and threebody problems is given. The original Newtonian equations of perturbed spatial restricted three-body problem are considered, and the problem of their regularization is posed; the energy relations and the differential equations describing the variations in the energies of the system in the perturbed spatial restricted three-body problem are given, as well as the first integrals of the differential equations of the unperturbed spatial restricted circular three-body problem (Jacobi integrals); the equations of perturbed spatial restricted three-body problem written in terms of rotating coordinate systems whose angular motion is described by the rotation quaternions (Euler (Rodrigues–Hamilton) parameters) are considered; and the differential equations for angular momenta in the restricted three-body problem are given.

Local regular quaternion differential equations of perturbed spatial restricted three-body problem in the Kustaanheimo–Stiefel variables, i.e., equations regular in a neighborhood of the first and second body of finite mass, are obtained. The equations are systems of nonlinear nonstationary eleventhorder differential equations. These equations employ, as additional dependent variables, the energy characteristics of motion of the body under study (a body of a negligibly small mass) and the time whose derivative with respect to a new independent variable is equal to the distance from the body of negligibly small mass to the first or second body of finite mass.

The equations obtained in the paper permit developing regular methods for determining solutions, in analytical or numerical form, of problems difficult for classicalmethods, such as the motion of a body of negligibly small mass in a neighborhood of the other two bodies of finite masses.

The problem of deformation of a horizontal plane layer of a compressible material is solved in the framework of the theory of small strains. The upper boundary of the layer is under the action of shear and compressing loads, and the no-slip condition is satisfied on the lower boundary of the layer. The loads increase in absolute value with time, then become constant, and then decrease to zero.Various plasticity conditions are consideredwith regard to the material compressibility, namely, the Coulomb–Mohr plasticity condition, the von Mises–Schleicher plasticity condition, and the same conditions with the viscous properties of the material taken into account. To solve the system of partial differential equations for the components of irreversible strains, a finite-difference scheme is developed for a spatial domain increasing with time. The laws of motion of elastoplastic boundaries are presented, the stresses, strains, rates of strain, and displacements are calculated, and the residual stresses and strains are found.

The analytic solution of the problem of forced vibrations of a rigid body with cylindrical surface on a horizontal foundation is given. It is assumed that the dry friction force acts at the point of contact between the cylindrical surface of the body and the foundation and the foundation moves by a harmonic law in the horizontal direction perpendicularly to the cylindrical surface element. The averaging method is used to determine the forced vibration mode near the natural frequency of the body vibrations on the fixed foundation. The results are presented as amplitude-frequency and phase-frequency characteristics.

The six-dimensional complex formalism is used to obtain equations for determining long-wave asymptotics of symmetric fundamental modes of Lamb waves in an anisotropic layer. Analytic expressions are obtained for long-wave asymptotics of phase velocities of Lamb waves propagating in an isotropic layer.
