Electrical Effects of Hypervelocity Impacts
While a large fraction of the space community is cognizant of the mechanical damage that can be caused by hypervelocity impacts, very few take into consideration the electrical pathway that can lead to satellite anomalies and failures. In this paper, we briefly describe the characteristics of the plasma that is generated when a satellite is struck by a meteoroid or a piece of orbital debris. We...
متن کاملDetection and Analysis of RF Data from Hypervelocity Impacts
Ground based tests were performed at the Max-Planck-Institute für Kernphysik Van de Graaff accelerator in Heidelberg, Germany to explore radiofrequency (RF) emission associated with hypervelocity particle impact induced plasma. Meteoroids and dust traveling between 11 and 72.8 km/s are constantly bombarding spacecraft while on orbit. These hypervelocity particles may cause electrical anomalies ...
متن کاملFracture Analysis of Externally Semi-Elliptical Crack in a Spherical Pressure Vessel with Hoop-Wrapped Composite
In this paper the effect of composite hoop-wrapped on stress intensity factor for semi-elliptical external crack which located in spherical pressure vessel, were investigated through the Finite Element Analysis. In order to find the effect of some parameters such as composite thickness and width, internal pressure and crack geometry, comparisons between different cases were done and discussed i...
متن کاملRF Signatures of Hypervelocity Impacts on Spacecraft
We investigate the radio frequency (RF) signature resulting from a hypervelocity impact on a spacecraft. While hypervelocity impactors, consisting of meteoroids, dust and orbital debris, are known to cause mechanical damage to satellites, very little is understood about the electrical effects associated with an impact. We present a theory to describe the behavior of the plasma produced from a h...
متن کاملChemistry and Phase Transitions from Hypervelocity Impacts
Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study hypervelocity impacts of an ultrathin flyer plate with a semi-infinite two-dimensional model diatomic molecular solid. We show that these hypervelocity impacts can produce a dissociative phase transition from a molecular to a close-packed solid in the target material. We also show that hypervelocity impacts of ultrathin plates can produce extensi...
