Book excerpt: This book covers the topics of theoretical principles, dynamics model and algorithm, mission analysis, system design and experimental studies of space nets system, aiming to provide an initial framework in this field and serve as a ready reference for those interested. Space nets system represents a forefront field in future development of aerospace technologies. However, it involves new challenges and problems such as nonlinear and distorted nets structure, complex rigid flexible coupling dynamics, orbital transfer of space flexible composite and dynamics control. Currently, no comprehensive books on space nets dynamics and design are available, so potential readers can get to know the working mechanism, dynamics elements, and mission design of the space nets system from a Chinese perspective.

Book excerpt: "For containing the growth of space debris, which jeopardizes operation of spacecraft, the active removal of large and massive derelict satellites and launcher upper stages is needed. A promising technology for this endeavor is the use of tether-nets. In this concept, a tether-net is thrown from a chaser spacecraft in the proximity of a target debris towards this target; the net entangles the target or closes around it, and the tether connecting the net to the chaser provides a link to tug debris to its disposal orbit.The aim of this research is to gain insight into the dynamics of tether-nets in space: the focus is on the deployment and capture phases of the mission. This is done primarily through numerical simulation, with tools expressly developed in MATLAB and in Vortex Dynamics. The latter simulation tool is representative of the main components of the system, flexible, and computationally efficient.The first part of this study is dedicated to the deployment phase. A standard lumped-parameter model of the net is introduced and its implementation in the two simulators is verified. Results of deployment simulations reveal a snapping behavior of tension. The effect of taking into account the bending stiffness of the threads of the net on the deployment dynamics is analyzed, thanks to the implementation of an augmented lumped-parameter model. Further, analytical derivations based on work-energy and linear momentum principles allow to identify bounds for centroidal velocities during deployment and key parameters leading this dynamics; a sensitivity study shows that more lasting deployment and safer capture can be obtained by employing moderately heavy corner masses, moderate shooting angles, and low shooting velocities. The effect of tensioning of the main tether on the quality of deployment is also investigated.The second part of this work deals with the dynamics of net-based capture of space debris. Continuous compliant models for the normal contact force and micro-slip models for friction are used to represent contacts; the effect of contact modeling choices is evaluated in a simple capture scenario. Analysis of the effect of representing the bending stiffness of the threads of the net on capture shows that, notwithstanding visible differences in the dynamics, the success of capture remains similar. It is ascertained that capture of realistic tumbling debris is robust to multiple non-nominal deployment conditions; however, the need to include a closing mechanism is recognized. The working principle of a possible closing mechanism based on spooling-in of the main tether is verified through modeling and simulation, following analysis of the effect of tether tensioning on capture dynamics. Simulations with simple closing mechanisms, independent of the spooling of the main tether, help identify safer scenarios for capture. Modification of the net model allows to overcome limitations of the lumped-parameter model and to detect collisions with thin elements, such as solar arrays. Finally, it is suggested that tether-nets could be used to capture small asteroids." --

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attitude Takeover Control of Failed Spacecraft is both necessary and urgently required. This book provides an overview of the topic and the role of space robots in handling various types of failed spacecraft. The book divides the means of attitude takeover control into three types, including space manipulator capture, tethered space robot capture, and cellular space robot capture. Spacecraft attitude control is the process of controlling the orientation of a spacecraft (vehicle or satellite) with respect to an inertial frame of reference or another entity such as the celestial sphere, certain fields, and nearby objects, etc. It has become increasingly important: with the increasing number of human space launch activities, the number of failed spacecraft has increased dramatically in recent years. Proposes a means of attitude takeover control of failed spacecraft Provides a comprehensive overview of current attitude takeover control technologies of space robots Covers space manipulator capture, tethered space robot capture, and cellular space robot capture

Book excerpt: This book considers global solutions to the restricted three-body problem from a geometric point of view. The authors seek dynamical channels in the phase space which wind around the planets and moons and naturally connect them. These low energy passageways could slash the amount of fuel spacecraft need to explore and develop our solar system. In order to effectively exploit these passageways, the book addresses the global transport. It goes beyond the traditional scope of libration point mission design, developing tools for the design of trajectories which take full advantage of natural three or more body dynamics, thereby saving precious fuel and gaining flexibility in mission planning. This is the key for the development of some NASA mission trajectories, such as low energy libration point orbit missions (e.g., the sample return Genesis Discovery Mission), low energy lunar missions and low energy tours of outer planet moon systems, such as a mission to tour and explore in detail the icy moons of Jupiter. This book can serve as a valuable resource for graduate students and advanced undergraduates in applied mathematics and aerospace engineering, as well as a manual for practitioners who work on libration point and deep space missions in industry and at government laboratories. the authors include a wealth of background material, but also bring the reader up to a portion of the research frontier.
