Origami-based structures have expanded in recent years due to new mathematical formulations along with materials that can achieve the bending requirements, often in the form of composites. While current methods of manufacturing can produce complex structures, they lack the ability to scale efficiently. A novel manufacturing technique is discussed in this work that allows for a simpler and lower cost fabrication that can scale to larger structures through robotic deposition. Samples made from this technique are investigated to understand the mechanical bending performance and effect on the tensile properties. Results show an orientation-dependent response for the material with the 45° samples having a direct impact on the tensile response. However, their bending response proved to be stiffer compared to the [Formula: see text] samples, holding more consistent bend radii. Joint stacking was also investigated, where discrete layers were not bonded together and showed an increase in force required to bend compared to the completely bonded samples. The results provide insight into how integrated composite hinges can perform in complex structures. The advancement of composite origami technology additionally works to reduce the overall number or parts and fasteners that are needed to achieve detailed deployable structures.
近年来,由于新的数学公式以及可以达到弯曲要求的材料(通常以复合材料的形式),折纸结构得到了扩展。虽然目前的制造方法可以生产复杂的结构,但它们缺乏有效扩展的能力。在这项工作中讨论了一种新的制造技术,该技术允许更简单,更低成本的制造,可以通过机器人沉积扩展到更大的结构。对用这种方法制成的样品进行了研究,以了解其机械弯曲性能及其对拉伸性能的影响。结果表明,材料的取向相关响应与45°样品对拉伸响应有直接影响。然而,与[公式:见文本]样本相比,它们的弯曲响应被证明是更硬的,保持更一致的弯曲半径。还研究了接缝堆叠,其中离散层没有粘合在一起,并且与完全粘合的样品相比,弯曲所需的力增加。结果提供了深入了解如何集成复合铰链可以执行复杂的结构。复合折纸技术的进步还减少了实现详细可展开结构所需的零件和紧固件的总数。

Space-based optical monitoring systems have become promising options for space situational awareness with their advantages of observation range, duration, and quality. The dual-altitude band coverage evaluation of optical sensors is fundamental to designing and optimization of such systems. In this study, the dual-altitude band coverage evaluation of a spaceborne optical sensor with a cone field-of-view (FOV) constraint is addressed. Specifically, the target dual-altitude band region is discretized into crescent-shaped volume cells by introducing equidistant nodes along the radial and azimuth directions. When the size of each cell becomes sufficiently thin, the coverage of this cell can be approximated by the coverage of its centerline. Thus, the original dual-altitude band coverage problem is converted into a one-dimensional zenithal angular coverage problem. Then, considering geometric constraints on Earth’s occlusion and thermal background and the cone FOV constraints, we obtained the effective coverage of the azimuthal and zenithal angles of the target region by performing a comprehensive analysis of all 14 possible geometric cases. Alongside a pure coverage volume scoring method, a weighted coverage scoring method is introduced to take account of the nonuniform density distribution of space objects in altitude. Finally, the accuracy of the proposed method is validated by numerical examples.
天基光学监测系统以其在观测范围、持续时间和质量等方面的优势成为空间态势感知的重要选择。光学传感器的双高度覆盖评估是光学传感器系统设计和优化的基础。研究了星载光学传感器在圆锥视场约束下的双高度波段覆盖评估问题。具体而言,通过在径向和方位角方向上引入等距节点,将目标双高度波段区域离散为新月形体单元。当每个单元的尺寸变得足够薄时,该单元的覆盖范围可以用其中心线的覆盖范围来近似表示。从而将原来的双高度波段覆盖问题转化为一维天顶角覆盖问题。然后,考虑地球遮挡和热背景的几何约束以及圆锥视场的约束,综合分析了14种可能的几何情况,得到了目标区域方位角和天顶角的有效覆盖。在单纯的覆盖体积评分方法的基础上,引入了考虑空间目标在高空密度分布不均匀的加权覆盖评分方法。最后,通过数值算例验证了该方法的准确性。

Methods to Detect Impact-Induced Orbit Perturbations Using Spacecraft Navigation Data 利用航天器导航数据检测撞击引起的轨道微扰的方法

Debris strikes on operational spacecraft are becoming more common due to increasing numbers of space objects. Sample return missions indicate hundreds of minor strikes, but rigorous analysis is often only performed when a strike causes an anomaly in spacecraft performance. Developing techniques to identify and assess minor strikes that do not immediately cause anomalous behavior can help to validate models for debris populations and aid in the attribution of future anomalies. This study develops methods to detect subtle abrupt orbit perturbations indicative of minor debris strikes. An extended Kalman filter with dynamic model compensation is used to estimate a spacecraft’s orbit state based on simulated full-state (i.e., GPS) measurements. The filter is applied to the data forward and backward in time, and then a modified Fraser–Potter smoother is used to produce a fused state estimate. Various test statistics are developed and compared to identify abrupt unexpected changes in spacecraft velocity; techniques include McReynold’s filter-smoother consistency test and the Mahalanobis distance between forward and backward filter states. A trade study is performed to investigate the performance of test statistics as a function of filter parameters, and a Monte Carlo analysis illustrates the filter’s ability to detect and estimate strikes.
由于空间物体数量的增加,碎片撞击正在运行的航天器变得越来越普遍。样本返回任务表明有数百次轻微撞击,但通常只有在撞击导致航天器性能异常时才会进行严格的分析。开发技术来识别和评估不会立即导致异常行为的轻微撞击,有助于验证碎片种群模型,并有助于确定未来异常的归属。这项研究开发了检测微小碎片撞击的微妙突然轨道扰动的方法。基于模拟的全状态(即GPS)测量,使用具有动态模型补偿的扩展卡尔曼滤波器来估计航天器的轨道状态。滤波器在时间上前后应用于数据,然后使用改进的Fraser–Potter平滑器来产生融合状态估计。开发并比较了各种测试统计数据,以确定航天器速度的突然意外变化;技术包括McReynold滤波器平滑一致性测试和前向和后向滤波器状态之间的Mahalanobis距离。进行了权衡研究,以研究作为滤波器参数函数的测试统计的性能,蒙特卡罗分析说明了滤波器检测和估计打击的能力。

To extend the usability of solar sails in the sun–Earth–moon system, we analyze the transfer trajectories from the 9:2 Earth–moon near-rectilinear halo orbit (NRHO) to halo orbits around the sun–Earth L1 and L2 points under the assumption of a future mission for a solar sail spacecraft equipped with a solar electric propulsion (SEP) system deployed from the Lunar Orbital Platform-Gateway. The dynamics are modeled using the bicircular restricted four-body problem, where the gravitational forces from the sun, Earth, and moon as well as solar radiation pressure (SRP) are considered. We propose a trajectory design method that utilizes both SRP and SEP. The method consists of initial guess generation and optimization steps. The initial guess generation comprises the forward propagation of the escape trajectory from the NRHO, the backward propagation of the stable manifold of the target halo orbits, and their apoapsis patching process. Optimization is conducted to minimize propellant consumption by effectively controlling SRP. We perform optimizations with various parameters, namely, the sail area-to-mass ratio ([Formula: see text]), specifications of SEP, target sun–Earth halo orbit, and departure [Formula: see text] direction. The results validate the proposed trajectory design method and verify that solar sail acceleration can reduce the necessary amount of propellant, which indicates that such missions can be realized by small CubeSats.
为了扩大太阳帆在日地月系统中的可用性,我们分析了在月球轨道平台-网关部署的太阳能电力推进(SEP)系统的太阳帆航天器的未来任务假设下,从9:2地月近直线光晕轨道(NRHO)到围绕日地L1和L2点的光晕轨道的转移轨迹。动力学采用双圆限制四体问题建模,其中考虑了来自太阳、地球和月球的引力以及太阳辐射压力(SRP)。我们提出了一种同时利用SRP和SEP的轨迹设计方法,该方法包括初始猜测生成和优化步骤。初始猜测生成包括NRHO逃逸轨迹的前向传播、目标晕轨道稳定流形的后向传播以及它们的远点修补过程。通过有效控制SRP进行优化,使推进剂消耗最小化。我们对风帆的面积质量比(公式:见文)、SEP规格、目标日-地晕轨道、出发方向等参数进行优化。结果验证了所提出的轨道设计方法,并验证了太阳帆加速可以减少推进剂的必要量,这表明小型立方体卫星可以实现此类任务。

To reduce aerodynamic heat and drag, and thus improve the speed of hypersonic vehicles, opposing jet technology has become a research focus because of its excellent heat and drag reduction effect. In this paper, Navier–Stokes equations, the shear stress transport turbulent models, the Gupta chemical kinetics model, and the five-species air model are considered; and a numerical simulation program of hypersonic aerodynamic heat and drag with an opposing jet is developed and verified by existing experimental data. On this basis, the flight conditions of [Formula: see text], 14, and 15 at a 30 km flight altitude are simulated numerically; and the complex flowfield structure of the leading edge of a blunt body with or without the opposing jet is analyzed. It is found that the jet can push away the shock wave, playing a good role in reducing heat and drag. The influence of the pressure ratio, Mach number, and jet temperature on reducing heat and drag is investigated. The results indicate that, under the same conditions, increasing the pressure ratio, increasing the jet Mach number, and decreasing the inlet Mach number will be more helpful for reducing heat and drag; whereas increasing the jet temperature is not conducive to heat reduction and has little impact on aerodynamic drag.
为了降低气动热阻,从而提高高超声速飞行器的速度,对向射流技术因其优异的减热减阻效果而成为研究热点。本文考虑了Navier-Stokes方程、剪切应力输运湍流模型、Gupta化学动力学模型和五种空气模型;并编制了具有对向射流的高超声速气动热阻数值模拟程序,并用已有的实验数据进行了验证。在此基础上,对[公式:见文]、14、15在30 km飞行高度下的飞行情况进行了数值模拟;分析了有无对向射流时钝体前缘复杂的流场结构。研究发现,射流可以推开激波,起到很好的减热减阻作用。研究了压力比、马赫数和射流温度对减热减阻的影响。结果表明,在相同条件下,增大压比、增大射流马赫数、减小进气道马赫数更有利于减热减阻;而射流温度的升高不利于减热,对气动阻力影响不大。

Recently, NASA has pushed for returning humans to the moon sustainably with in situ resource utilization as the central focus. The moon has an abundance of water that is proposed to be electrolyzed into hydrogen and oxygen to be used as propellant. Other volatiles such as ammonia, carbon dioxide, and methane are also present. A mission architecture for a lunar ascent/descent vehicle (LADV) from the Polytechnic University of Turin and nuclear thermal propulsion (NTP) engine models from the University of Alabama in Huntsville were used to compare in-situ-derived propellants for a LADV. This study considered a LADV originating from the lunar surface, delivering a payload in the lunar distant retrograde orbit, and returning to the lunar surface for retanking. This research analyzed the impacts on this mission of using hydrogen NTP, water/ammonia NTP, liquid-oxygen augmented nuclear thermal rocket, and Aeon 1 methane–oxygen engines using the selected architecture and tools. The results were compared to the reference hydrogen–oxygen RL10 engine. The propulsion system comparison analysis showed that combustion engines will offer better overall performance than NTP-based engines due to a 50% decrease in propellant volume, a 20% decrease in dry mass, and a lower propellant mass than the water and ammonia NTP systems. Both the hydrogen–oxygen and methane–oxygen propulsion systems will have similar propellant masses when compared to other systems. This is due to the order of magnitude higher mass of the NTP engines, with the highest mass contribution coming from the reactor. However, both water and ammonia alternative propellant NTP engines can still be viable candidates for the usage of these minimally processed propellants to satisfy this mission.
最近,美国国家航空航天局以原位资源利用为中心,推动人类可持续重返月球。月球上有大量的水,这些水被提议电解成氢气和氧气,用作推进剂。其他挥发物如氨、二氧化碳和甲烷也存在。都灵理工大学的月球上升/下降飞行器(LADV)的任务架构和阿拉巴马大学亨茨维尔分校的核热推进(NTP)发动机模型用于比较LADV的原位衍生推进剂。这项研究考虑了一种源自月球表面的LADV,它在月球遥远的逆行轨道上运载有效载荷,并返回月球表面进行重新定位。本研究分析了使用选定的架构和工具使用氢NTP、水/氨NTP、液氧增强核热火箭和Aeon 1甲烷-氧气发动机对此次任务的影响。将结果与参考氢-氧RL10发动机进行了比较。推进系统比较分析表明,由于推进剂体积减少了50%,干质量减少了20%,推进剂质量低于水和氨NTP系统,因此内燃机将比基于NTP的发动机提供更好的整体性能。与其他系统相比,氢氧和甲烷-氧气推进系统的推进剂质量相似。这是由于NTP发动机的质量更高,其中最高的质量贡献来自反应堆。然而,水和氨替代推进剂NTP发动机仍然是使用这些最低加工推进剂来满足这一任务的可行候选者。

Heat-Transfer Gauge Arrays for Identifying Spot Initiation in Hypersonic Transitional Boundary Layers 用于识别高超音速过渡边界层中点起爆的传热计阵列

The initiation and growth of turbulent spots in transitional hypersonic boundary layers can influence the transition length and the distribution of heat transfer and skin friction through the transitional region. There is debate in the literature about whether spots initiate in a small band at the start of transition or throughout the transitional region. This paper presents a new design of arrays of thin-film heat transfer specifically designed to detect whether spots initiate in a small band. The gauges were arranged in two spanwise rows at different streamwise locations and were tested on a 7° blunt cone in the T4 Stalker Tube. It is shown that such instrumentation is capable of identifying that some spots initiate between the rows when other spots have already formed upstream of the first row. This demonstrates that the breakdown of laminar boundary layers is not concentrated in a region of small streamwise extent in the current hypersonic flows.
高超声速过渡边界层湍流斑的产生和增长会影响过渡段的长度以及过渡段的换热和表面摩擦分布。在文献中有关于黑子是在过渡开始时的一个小带中开始还是在整个过渡区域中开始的争论。本文提出了一种新的薄膜传热阵列设计,专门用于检测斑点是否在小波段内产生。这些仪表被安排在两个跨向排在不同的流向位置,并在T4潜行器管的7°钝锥上进行测试。结果表明,当其他斑点已经在第一行的上游形成时,这种仪器能够识别出一些斑点在行之间开始。这说明在当前的高超声速流动中,层流边界层的击穿并不集中在一个小的流向范围内。

The results of a Pluto landing analysis study for a fast, hyperbolic approach trajectory are presented by assuming the use of a novel entry, descent, and landing system called an enveloping aerodynamic decelerator. A landing site uncertainty analysis is performed for an 11 September 2040 arrival by means of a Monte Carlo simulation to map key trajectory, aerodynamic, system, and atmosphere uncertainties to landing zone errors. The estimated 3 [Formula: see text] landing error ellipse is about 430 by 190 km. The band of feasible landing sites is between 35°N and 10°S latitude on the surface of Pluto.
通过假设使用一种称为包络式气动减速器的新型进入、下降和着陆系统,提出了冥王星快速双曲进近轨迹的着陆分析研究结果。通过蒙特卡罗模拟,对2040年9月11日着陆的着陆点不确定性进行了分析,将关键的轨迹、空气动力学、系统和大气不确定性映射到着陆区误差。估计的3[公式:见文本]着陆误差椭圆约为430乘190公里。可行的着陆点范围在冥王星表面北纬35°到南纬10°之间。
