Interactions between Spacecraft and Flows of Plasma and Electromagnetic Radiation in Earth Atmosphere
Journal Title: Технічна механіка, Техническая механика, Technical Mechanics - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
A brief analysis of the results of studies conducted at the Department of Mechanics of Ionized Media of the Institute of Technical Mechanics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine and the State of Space Agency of Ukraine in the period of 2011 – 2015 is presented. These studies were focused on the three lines characterizing interactions of magnetized spacecraft with the ionospheric plasma; structural materials with supersonic flows of atomic oxygen and vacuum ultraviolet radiation in the Earth atmosphere; the ITM’s scientific equipment for the Sich-2 satellite with the environment.

Evaluation of vehicle motion for electrodynamic transport system with plane track on side track of turn-out
The research aim is to provide the possibility of the vehicle motion of an electric dynamic transportation system on the turnout of a plane track, using mathematical modelling. The research novelty is to estimate a safe...
Model of motion of small radial space tetheredsystem by the action of aerodynamic moment
The possibility of using the electrodynamic space tethered systems (EDSTS) for deorbiting the space debris is currently being studied extensively. However, a preliminary analysis demonstrated the instability of a radial...
Development of elements of passive safety for new-generation high-speed passenger locomotives at emergency collisions on railways with 1520 mm gauge
In the design of a new-generation locomotive, an integrated passive safety system (PSS) must be considered to protect passengers and a train staff at probable emergency collisions. The paper discusses a scenario of a col...
Methodological approach to technical and economic feasibility of projects for new space tech-nology products
The problem of a combined optimization of spacecraft design parameters and its apogee solid rocket engine for the orbital maneuver resulting in the spacecraft transfer from elliptic orbit into given circular orbit is ex...
Development of a structural schematic of a bifunctional system for rocket engine thrust vector control
Space hardware improvement is largely determined by a further increase in the efficiency of rocket propul-sion systems. Extending the functional capabilities of propulsion systems is of special importance to stage flight...
