“…In previous studies, a cubist satellite with 15 mm relative displacement showed no change in behavior when its structural change was aimed toward optimization [19,20]. In other works, the response of peak-to-peak voltage in various thermal shocking conditions differed from shocking at constant temperature because of degradation [21,22].…”

Piezoelectric materials are widely used as smart structures in cubic reconnaissance satellites because of their sensing, actuating, and energy-harvesting abilities. In this study, an analytical model is developed in specific mechanical thermal shocking conditions. A special circuit and apparatus is designed for experimentation on the basis of the inverse piezoelectric effect. An equivalent circuit method is used to establish the relationship between the resistance and peak-to-peak voltage of lead zirconate titanate used as smart materials for cubic reconnaissance satellites. Various frequencies and resistance were applied in different mechanical thermal shocking conditions. Moreover, numerical simulations are conducted in various mechanical loading conditions to determine the accumulative effect. The model provides a novel mechanism to characterize the smart structures in cubic reconnaissance satellites. A rise in temperature increases peak-to-peak voltage; a rise in frequency decreases peak-to-peak voltage; and intensified resistance decreases peak-to-peak voltage. Based on experimentation and simulation, the optimum resistance is predicted for the various frequencies and temperatures. The various conditions may correspond to the different applications of smart structures for cubic reconnaissance satellites. The analytical calculations are in good agreement with experimental and numerical calculations.

This paper proposes a two-phase framework to solve an optimal multi-target Lambert rendezvous problem. The first phase solves a series of single-target rendezvous problems for all departure-arrival object pairs to generate the elementary solutions, which provides candidate rendezvous trajectories (elementary solutions). The second phase formulates a variant of traveling salesman problem (TSP) using the elementary solutions prepared in the first phase and determines the best rendezvous sequence and trajectories of the multi-target rendezvous problem. The validity of the proposed optimization framework is demonstrated through an asteroid exploration case study.

“…In order to remove as many as debris targets as possible in limited time, it may be necessary to correct the RAAN difference by actively using engine thrust actively in addition to the J2 effect. Despite the advancements in previous works [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] , most of the approximation methods proposed have focused on only one manner of RAAN correction.…”

The paper considers the ant colony optimization (ACO) methodology for designing an active debris removal mission. The goal is to optimize a sequence of transfers using an orbital transfer vehicle to rendezvous with multiple pieces of debris for the purpose of removal. The methodology consists of two phases: the first phase obtains an optimal removal sequence, and the second phase is related to transfer trajectory optimization. During the sequence planning process, a refined approximation is proposed to estimate the transfer times and necessary costs of individual transfers. The problem can then be mapped into a variant of the traveling salesman problem (TSP). To solve it, an enhanced ACO and the inver-over algorithm are proposed. The effectiveness of the ACO heuristic is proved over a set of instances with different sizes ranging from 100 to 2000. In the second phase, each transfer leg in the optimal sequence is verified using the continuous ACO proposed. The computational results show that the methodology proposed can optimally select targets from a debris archive of considerable size (i.e., up to 2000 debris pieces). Additionally, the mitigation of 13-20 objects, with total "V below 1 km/s, is feasible in less than a year.
