“…In this section, the sliding cable element accounting for friction is used to build an inverse dynamic model to help measure the pulling-out force of the space net from the net package for the analysis of the two-stage projection scheme of the space net [17,18]. The space net is one of the most promising devices for space debris removal [13].…”

A novel sliding cable element that takes friction into account is presented to solve the analysis problem, such as the slider reefing parachute systems, the suspended cable systems and the space net systems. According to the force analysis of the slider point, a formulation is obtained, which aims to calculate the tension on both sides of the slider point using the node coordinates. Based on this formula, the principle of virtual work, the finite element method, the generalized node internal force, the body force, and the time-dependent mass matrices are derived. Two classic validation problems with analytical solutions are used for the comparison of the solutions between the analytical method and the finite element method, as well as for the comparison of the solutions with or without friction. The comparison results show that the sliding cable element is theoretically correct and that the results without considering friction are unreliable. A new approach using the sliding cable element for the accurate friction test of the space net was presented for the analysis of the two-stage projection scheme; the result indicated that the accuracy of the experimental data processing is improved.

“…The launch scheme is feasible when the net dimension is relatively small; however, when the net dimension increases to a certain extent, entanglement problem in the net deployment process will occur. We have developed a reduced numerical model to simulate the ejection process in literature[ 20 ]. However, more accurate experimental data are still needed to validate this scheme and improve the numerical model.…”

With the continuous progress in active debris-removal technology, scientists are increasingly concerned about the concept of space-net capturing system. The space-net capturing system is a long-range-launch flexible capture system, which has great potential to capture non-cooperative targets such as inactive satellites and upper stages. In this work, the launch scheme is studied by experiment and simulation, including two-step ejection and multi-point-traction analyses. The numerical model of the tether/net is based on finite element method and is verified by full-scale ground experiment. The results of the ground experiment and numerical simulation show that the two-step ejection and six-point traction scheme of the space-net system is superior to the traditional one-step ejection and four-point traction launch scheme.
