Design of an intake and a thruster for an atmosphere-breathing electric propulsion system

Francesco Romano, Thomas Binderup Jensen

Challenging space missions include those at very low altitudes, where the atmosphere is the source of aerodynamic drag on the spacecraft, that finally defines the mission's lifetime, unless a way to compensate for it is provided. This environment is named ...

Numerical studies on saturated kink and sawtooth induced fast ion transport in JET ITER-like plasmas

Mario Ludovico Podesta, Matteo Vallar

This presentation examines the energetic particle transport induced by saturated kink modes and sawtooth crashes in JET deuterium plasmas. It is known that kink mode-resonant transport and phase-space redistribution from sawtooth crashes can drive strong f ...

Re-entry analysis of critical components and materials for design-for-demise techniques

Pénélope Leyland, Stefano Mischler, Seong-Hyeon Park

The concern caused by the rising population of space debris has increased. One of the recommended mitigation measures is the safe re-entry disposal either in a controlled or uncontrolled manner. Performing a controlled re-entry, where the spacecraft is gui ...

Simulating Enhanced Methane Deliverable Capacity of Guest Responsive Pores in Intrinsically Flexible MOFs

Berend Smit, Matthew David Witman

A novel computational procedure, based on the principles of flat-histogram Monte Carlo, is developed for facile prediction of the adsorption thermodynamics of intrinsically flexible adsorbents. We then demonstrate how an accurate prediction of methane deli ...

A Two Phase Heuristic Approach For The Dynamic Electric Autonomous Dial-a-Ride Problem

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Claudia Bongiovanni, Mor Kaspi

In the Dial-a-Ride-Problem (DARP) a fleet of vehicles provide shared-ride services to users specifying their origin, destination, and preferred arrival time. In the dynamic version of the DARP, some trips are booked in advance while others come in real-tim ...

Mission Design and GNC for In-Orbit Demonstration of Active Debris Removal Technologies with CubeSats

Volker Gass, Muriel Richard, Camille Sébastien Pirat, Federico Belloni, Reto Wiesendanger, Christophe Dominique Paccolat

Within the frame of the ESA's General Support Technology Programme, two In-Orbit Demonstration (IOD) missions using CubeSat technologies were studied. These IODs aim at alleviating the technical risk inherent to new technologies required for Active Debris ...

DEVELOPING A RELIABLE CAPTURE SYSTEM FOR CLEANSPACE ONE

Pierre-Alain Mäusli, Muriel Richard, Camille Sébastien Pirat, Régis Voillat, Timothée Robert Sophus Frei, Xavier Collaud, Bastien Gorret, Michel Lauria

The objectives of the CleanSpace One mission are to raise the awareness of the orbital debris problem, develop and test technologies for non-cooperative rendezvous and as a demonstration, de-orbit the SwissCube satellite. Within this project and over the l ...
