Abstract :
In this paper an extension of several sufficient conditions for finite-time stability of triangular systems are provided. We apply our conditions to show that the angular momentum equations, for a rigid spacecraft with two controls, is finite-time stabilizable. This allows to conclude the partial guidance of several under-actuated systems as the X4 flyer.
