The transition through resonance of a nonlinear non-autonomous system

Abstract

An approximate nonlinear perturbation analysis for the re-entry roll resonance model is given. The results are used to identify the dynamic process involved, as characterised by terms in the model equations, and to suggest a prudent management rule for this and similar transiently-resonant systems.
