Analysis of the orbital evolution of space debris using a solar sail and natural forces
Jean Paulo dos S. Carvalho, Rodolpho Vilhena de Moraes, Antonio Fernando Bertachini de A. Prado
In this work, the orbital evolution of these objects that are located in the geostationary orbit (GEO) is analyzed. Knowing this, the possibility of using a solar sail is considere…
Using low Lift-to-Drag spacecraft to perform upper atmospheric Aero-Gravity Assisted Maneuvers
Jhonathan O. Murcia Piñeros, Rodolpho Vilhena de Moraes, Antônio F. Bertachini de Almeida Prado
The Gravity Assisted Maneuver has been applied in lots of space missions, to change the spacecraft heliocentric velocity vector and the geometry of the orbit, after the close appro…
Applying the perturbative integral in aeromaneuvers around Mars to calculate the cost
Jhonathan O. Murcia Piñeros, Antônio F. Bertachini de Almeida Prado, Walter Abrahão dos Santos +1
The perturbative integral method was applied to quantify the contribution of external forces during a specific interval of time in trajectories of spacecraft around asteroids and u…
Autonomous Rapid Exploration in Close-Proximity of an Asteroid
Rodolfo Batista Negri, Antônio Fernando Bertachini de Almeida Prado, Ronan Arraes Jardim Chagas +1
The increasing number of space missions may overwhelm ground support infrastructure, prompting the need for autonomous deep-space guidance, navigation, and control (GN\&C) systems.…
