Subsurface pulse, crater and ejecta asymmetry from oblique impacts into granular media
Bingcheng Suo, A. C. Quillen, Max Neiderbach +9
We carry out experiments of 104 m/s velocity oblique impacts into a granular medium (sand). Impact craters have nearly round rims even at a grazing angle of about , howev…
Surface particle motions excited by a low velocity normal impact into a granular medium
Max Neiderbach, Bingcheng Suo, Esteban Wright +5
In laboratory experiments, high speed videos are used to detect and track mm-size surface particle motions caused by a low velocity normal impact into sand. Outside the final crate…
Sub-surface granular dynamics in the context of oblique, low-velocity impacts into angular granular media
Peter M. Miklavčič, Hesam Askari, Paul Sánchez +2
Oblique, low-velocity impacts onto extraterrestrial terrain are an inevitable occurrence during space exploration. We conduct two-dimensional discrete simulations to model such imp…
Ricochets on Asteroids II: Sensitivity of laboratory experiments of low velocity grazing impacts on substrate grain size
Esteban Wright, Alice C. Quillen, Paul Sanchez +4
We compare low velocity impacts that ricochet with the same impact velocity and impact angle into granular media with similar bulk density, porosity and friction coefficient but di…
Ricochets on Asteroids: Experimental study of low velocity grazing impacts into granular media
Esteban Wright, Alice Quillen, Juiliana South +6
Spin off events and impacts can eject boulders from an asteroid surface and rubble pile asteroids can accumulate from debris following a collision between large asteroids. These pr…
