Abstract
It is known that rigid body models with two controls cannot be locally asymptotically stabilized by continuous feedbacks which are functions of the state only. This impossibility does no longer hold when the fe edback is also a function of time, or when it is discontinuous. A loca lly stabilizing smooth time-varying feedback is here explicitly derive d by using Center Manifold Theory combined with averaging and Lyapunov techniques.
