             abstract = "Most of the satellite missions require orbital maneuvers to 
                         accomplish its goals. An orbital maneuver is an operation where 
                         the orbit of a satellite is changed, usually applying a type of 
                         propulsion. The maneuvers may have several purposes, such as the 
                         transfer of a satellite to its final orbit, the interception of 
                         another spacecraft, or the adjustment of the orbit to compensate 
                         the shifts caused by external forces. In this situation it is 
                         essential to minimize the fuel consumption to allow a greater 
                         number of maneuvers to be performed, and thus the lifetime of the 
                         satellite can be extended. There are several papers and studies 
                         which aim at the fuel minimization in maneuvers performed by space 
                         vehicles. In this context, this paper has two goals: (i) to 
                         develop an algorithm capable of finding optimal trajectories with 
                         continuous thrust that can fit different types of missions and 
                         constraints at the same time and (ii) to study the performance of 
                         two propulsion devices for orbital maneuvers under development at 
                         the Universidade de Brasilia, including a study of the effects of 
                         the errors in magnitude of these new devices.",
