Abstrakt: A mathematical model of a spacecraft (SC) with an arbitrary number of large flexible structural (appendages) elements (LFSEs) is developed, implemented, and verified. The SC model obtained based on the general equations of dynamics is written in generalized coordinates. It allows three types of articulation between the LFSEs and the SC's body: cantilever, and with the help of one-step and two-step hinges. Due to the procedure used in the derivation of the equations of motion, the proposed model allows us to change the number of LFSEs and types of articulation without rewriting the equations of motion in symbolic form, which makes it comfortable for software implementation.
