Study on Space Debris and Impact Effect on Spacecraft

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Space debris is increasingly concerned by aerospace engineers and scientists. The evolution of an orbital debris cloud, the collision probability between of debris and a spacecraft, and the damage evaluation of spacecraft when impacted by space debris are studied in this work. A hypervelocity impact model for honeycomb panel is proposed. Under considering secondary debris, the survivability of spacecraft impacted by space debris is finally investigated.
