Convex Optimization of Launch Vehicle Ascent Trajectory with Heat-Flux and Splash-Down Constraints
Boris Benedikter, Alessandro Zavoli, Guido Colasurdo +2
This paper presents a convex programming approach to the optimization of a multistage launch vehicle ascent trajectory, from the liftoff to the payload injection into the target or…
Integrated Optimization of Ascent Trajectory and SRM Design of Multistage Launch Vehicles
Lorenzo Federici, Alessandro Zavoli, Guido Colasurdo +2
This paper presents a methodology for the concurrent first-stage preliminary design and ascent trajectory optimization, with application to a Vega-derived Light Launch Vehicle. The…
GTOC X: Solution Approach of Team Sapienza-PoliTo
Alessandro Zavoli, Lorenzo Federici, Boris Benedikter +2
This paper summarizes the solution approach and the numerical methods developed by the joint team Sapienza University of Rome and Politecnico di Torino (Team Sapienza-PoliTo) in th…
A Time-Dependent TSP Formulation for the Design of an Active Debris Removal Mission using Simulated Annealing
Lorenzo Federici, Alessandro Zavoli, Guido Colasurdo
This paper proposes a formulation of the Active Debris Removal (ADR) Mission Design problem as a modified Time-Dependent Traveling Salesman Problem (TDTSP). The TDTSP is a well-kno…
A Convex Optimization Approach for Finite-Thrust Time-Constrained Cooperative Rendezvous
Boris Benedikter, Alessandro Zavoli, Guido Colasurdo
This paper presents a convex approach to the optimization of a cooperative rendezvous, that is, the problem of two distant spacecraft that simultaneously operate to get closer. Con…
