Automated Rendezvous and Docking of Spacecraft
The definitive reference for space engineers on rendezvous and docking/berthing (RVD/B) related issues, this book answers key questions such as: How does the docking vehicle accurately approach the target spacecraft? What technology is needed aboard the spacecraft to perform automatic rendezvous and docking, and what systems are required by ground control to supervise this process? How can the proper functioning of all rendezvous-related equipment, systems and operations be verified before launch? The book provides an overview of the major issues governing approach and mating strategies, and system concepts for rendezvous and docking/berthing. These issues are described and explained such that aerospace engineers, students and even newcomers to the field can acquire a basic understanding of RVD/B. The author would like to extend his thanks to Dr Shufan Wu, GNC specialist and translator of the book's Chinese edition, for his help in the compilation of these important errata.
Safety Design for Space Operations
Endorsed by the International Association for the Advancement of Space Safety (IAASS) and drawing on the expertise of the world's leading experts in the field, Safety Design for Space Operations provides the practical how-to guidance and knowledge base needed to facilitate effective launch-site and operations safety in line with current regulations. With information on space operations safety design currently disparate and difficult to find in one place, this unique reference brings together essential material on: - Best design practices relating to space operations, such as the design of spaceport facilities. - Advanced analysis methods, such as those used to calculate launch and re-entry d...
International Conference on Electrical, Control and Automation （ICECA 2014）
International Conference on Electrical, Control and Automation （ICECA 2014）will be held from February 22nd to 23rd, 2014 in Shanghai, China. CECA 2014 will bring together top researchers from Asian Pacific areas, North America, Europe and around the world to exchange research results and address open issues in all aspects of Electrical, Control and Automation. The ICECA 2014 welcomes the submission of original full research papers, short papers, posters, workshop proposals, tutorials, and industrial professional reports.
Safety Design for Space Operations
This chapter deals with some key topics of orbital safety. It starts with an overview of the issue of space traffic control and space situational awareness, and then proceeds to address conjunction analyses and collision avoidance maneuvers (CAM), including for the International Space Station. Another kind of collision risk discussed is the jettison of discarded hardware. The chapter then covers rendezvous and docking/berthing operations. Collision safety risks, their causes and consequences, and the measures for protection are discussed in detail. The chapter also covers the issues of space vehicles charging and contamination hazards, including the shock hazard for astronauts involved in extravehicular activities. Finally, the chapter presents end-of life mitigation measures and techniques for space debris removal, such as space tugs, drag devices and electrodynamic propulsion.
Untersuchungen zur Anwendung von Entfernungssensoren für Kleinsatelliten
Heutzutage wird immer häufiger der Einsatz von nicht speziell für die Raumfahrt qualifizierten Komponenten für Weltraumanwendungen in Betracht gezogen. Als einer der Hauptgründe spielen die geringeren Kosten eine wesentliche Rolle, jedoch sind Verfügbarkeit, Leistungsanforderungen sowie der Formfaktor weitere Gründe nicht-raumfahrtqualifizierte Elektronikbauteile einzusetzen. Insbesondere bei Kleinsatelliten wird oft der Einsatz von solchen Bauteilen erwogen. Nicht-raumfahrtqualifizierte Elektronikbauteile können die hohen Anforderungen, die an die Zuverlässigkeit von Raumfahrtkomponenten gestellt werden, in der Regel nicht erfüllen. Durch die Los-zu-Los-Schwankungen, die schlechte ...
Plasma Propulsion
What Is Plasma Propulsion A SpaceX Starship powered by chemical methylox engines will take up to six months to reach Mars. On Earth, radiation exposure is less than 2.5 milliseiverts per year. On their approach to Mars, colonists will face levels 300 times higher than that. Can we use superconducting advanced plasma propulsion technologies to cut the time down to 30 days? Neutron Star Systems has developed an improved magnetoplasmadynamic thruster system that uses rare earth barium copper oxide high temperature superconducting electromagnets to significantly improve plasma propulsion performance while consuming less electricity. This could be the way of the future for spaceflight propulsion....
