However, there is little literature providing a comprehensive review and comparison of different membrane antenna structures. Space-borne membrane antenna structures are mainly classified as either parabolic or planar membrane antenna structures. For parabolic membrane antenna structures, there are five deploying and forming methods, including inflation, inflation-rigidization, elastic ribs driven, Shape Memory Polymer （SMP）-inflation, and electrostatic form- ing. The development and detailed comparison of these five methods are presented. Then, properties of membrane materials （including polyester film and polyimide film） for parabolic membrane antennas are compared. Additionally, for planar membrane antenna structures, frame shapes have changed from circular to rectangular, and different ten- sioning systems have emerged successively, including single Miura-Natori, double, and multi-layer tensioning systems. Recent advances in structural configurations, tensioning system design, and dynamic analysis for planar membrane antenna structures are investigated. Finally, future trends for large space membrane antenna structures are pointed out and technical problems are proposed, including design and analysis of membrane structures,materials and processes, membrane packing, surface accuracy stability, and test and verification technology. Through a review of large deployable membrane antenna structures, guidance for space membrane-antenna research and applications is provided.展开更多

Using three gallium-arsenide solar cell samples, the gap lengths of the solar cell are set to 1, 2, and 3 mm. First, the primary arc voltage characteristics of a solar array are analyzed. It is found that two steps are involved in the primary arc voltages, which are 116 and 22 V according to our experiment and are independent of the electrostatic discharge current and the gap lengths. By comparing with the arc pattern, we determined that current chopping may be the reason for the stepped arc voltage. Then, the characteristics of the secondary arc of the solar array are demonstrated. The study shows that the secondary arc voltage values increase with the gap length. In the case of the same cell with a fixed gap length, the voltage of the secondary arc increases with the string current. Finally, the relationship between the secondary arc voltage and the gap length is obtained which helps the string voltage and the gap length selection for system design.展开更多

In the spacecraft’s orbital plane, the space non-cooperate target with autonomous approaching to the spacecraft may have a dangerous rendezvous. To deal with this problem, an optimal maneuvering strategy based on the relative navigation observability degree is proposed with angles-only measurements. A maneuver evasion relative navigation model in the spacecraft’s orbital plane is constructed and the observability measurement criteria with process noise and measurement noise are defined based on the posterior Cramer-Rao lower bound. Further, the optimal maneuver evasion strategy in spacecraft’s orbital plane based on the observability is proposed. The strategy provides a new idea for spacecraft to evade safety threats autonomously. Compared with the spacecraft evasion problem based on the absolute navigation, more accurate evasion results can be obtained. The simulation indicates that this optimal strategy can weaken the system’s observability and reduce the state estimation accuracy of the non-cooperative target, making it impossible for the non-cooperative target to accurately approach the spacecraft.展开更多

Based on the plasma expansion fluid theory, a new multicomponent plasma expansion model is proposed in this study, which takes into account the effects of ion species, ion number, initial discharge current, and Low Earth Orbit(LEO) plasma environment. The expansion simulation of single-component and multicomponent ions is carried out respectively, and the variations of plasma number density, expansion distance, and speed during the expansion process are obtained.Compared with the experimental results, the evolution of propagation distance and speed is closed and the error is within a reasonable range, which verifies the validity and rationality of the model. The propagation characteristics of the primary discharge on the solar array surface and the influence of the initial value on the maximum propagation distance and the propagation current peaks are investigated. This study can provide important theoretical support for the propagation and evolution of the primary discharge and the key behavior of the transition to secondary discharge on spacecraft solar array.展开更多

文摘A large number of pyroshock devices are employed in spacecraft and rockets to realize stage separation and appendage deployment.Release of pyroshock devices induces high-level transient shock responses which tend to cause fatal damages in electronic equipment made of crystals and brittle materials.This paper aims to provide methods to isolate pyroshock and guarantee the safety of such equipment against high-frequency shocks.Firstly,stress wave transmission mechanism in stepped rods is investigated,upon which optimal area rate for shock isolation is achieved.Then,two spacecraft-rocket interface structures for pyroshock isolation,namely isolation hole and interim segment,are proposed.Both numerical simulations and experiments are carried out to validate the two shock isolation strategies.It is revealed that the interim segment structure shows better pyroshock isolation performance at the cost of increasing the weight of launching system whereas isolation hole is an optimal choice to reduce pyroshock response without causing weight increase.

文摘In the space plasma environment, primary discharge may occur on the solar array and evolve into a destructive sustained arc, which threatens the safe operation of the spacecraft. Based on the plasma expansion fluid theory, a new multicomponent plasma expansion model is proposed in this study, which takes into account the effects of ion species, ion number, initial discharge current, and Low Earth Orbit(LEO) plasma environment. The expansion simulation of single-component and multicomponent ions is carried out respectively, and the variations of plasma number density, expansion distance, and speed during the expansion process are obtained.Compared with the experimental results, the evolution of propagation distance and speed is closed and the error is within a reasonable range, which verifies the validity and rationality of the model. The propagation characteristics of the primary discharge on the solar array surface and the influence of the initial value on the maximum propagation distance and the propagation current peaks are investigated. This study can provide important theoretical support for the propagation and evolution of the primary discharge and the key behavior of the transition to secondary discharge on spacecraft solar array.
文摘The shock loads generated by spacecraft during docking can cause functional failure and structural damage to aerospace electronic equipment and even lead to catastrophic flight accidents.There is currently a lack of systematic and comprehensive research on the shock environment of spacecraft electronic equipment due to the diversity and complexity of the shock environment.In this paper,the validity of the finite element model is verified based on the sinusoidal vibration experiment results of the spacecraft reentry capsule.The method of shock dynamic response analysis is used to obtain the shock environment of electronic equipment under different shock loads.The shock response spectrum is used to describe the shock environment of aerospace electronic equipment.The results show that the resonance frequency error between the sinusoidal vibration experiment and the model is less than 4.06%.When the docking relative speed of the reentry capsule is 2 m/s,the shock response spectrum values of one of the equipment are 30 m^(2)/s,0.67 m/s,and 0.059 m,respectively.The wire rope spring on the mating surface can provide vibration isolation and shock resistance.An increase in spring damping coefficient results in a decrease in the amplitude and time of the vibration generated.An increase in spring stiffness reduces the input of shock load within a certain range.These research results can provide guidance for the design and evaluation of shock environmental adaptability of aerospace electronic equipment.

文摘In this work,we successfully fabricate an ultra-high strength Mg-11Gd-3Y-0.5Zr alloy with ultimate tensile strength of 523 MPa and enhanced ductility via cost-effective bi-directional forging (BDF) and subsequent annealing heat treatments.To elucidate the role of BDF and gain a fundamental understanding of the remarkable simultaneous increase of strength and ductility,systematic microstructure characterization and analysis are performed.It is revealed that the double-peak basal texture,with basal poles located at the center of two mutually perpendicular forging directions,serves as an essential factor for the strength-ductility synergy of the Mg-11Gd-3Y-0.5Zr alloy processed with BDF.Roles of the double-peak basal texture in overcoming the strength-ductility trade-off include promoting non-basal slip,increasing ductility,and enlarging the Hall-Petch effect along the sample elongation direction while reducing the extent of anisotropy in critical resolved shear stresses of different slip systems.This study demonstrates that texture engineering is a powerful strategy to control magnesium alloy performance and BDF is a promising processing technique for enhancing mechanical properties of magnesium alloys.
文摘As the core information infrastructure of modern information warfare,the offensive and defensive confrontations of satellite navigation systems have given rise to navigation warfare,which focuses on seizing control of navigation resources.Based on the space segment,control segment,and user segment of satellite navigation systems,this paper systematically constructs an offensive-defensive technology system for navigation warfare,and deeply analyzes core measures such as signal enhancement and suppression,autonomous navigation and link jamming,anti-jamming reception,and integrated navigation.It extracts key technologies including adaptive nulling antennas,joint filtering,and multi-dimensional combined jamming,and discusses the technical effectiveness of these technologies by incorporating relevant cases.The advantages of navigation warfare stem from multi-segment coordination and technological inte-gration.In the future,the development directions of navigation warfare will focus on three aspects:enhancing satellite capabilities,tackling core technical challenges,and building a multi-dimensional system.
文摘The Macao Science Satellite-1(MSS-1)is the first space science satellite jointly developed on the Chinese mainland and in Macao region.It comprises two satellites,named MSS-1A and MSS-1B,and holds considerable importance in China’s space exploration endeavors.Among these,MSS-1A is the world’s first high-precision scientific satellite dedicated to exploring the geomagnetic field and space environment at low latitudes.Equipped with two high-precision vector magnetometers and one scalar magnetometer,which are integrally installed on a highly stable nonmagnetic optical bench,the MSS-1A enables simultaneous high-precision measurements of both the Earth’s vector magnetic field and its scalar components.Its design integrates several state-of-the-art technologies,including arc-second-level thermal stability control,nonmagnetic thermal control for the optical bench,and ultra-high magnetic cleanliness control.These innovations effectively minimize magnetic interference originating from the satellite itself,thereby substantially improving the precision of geomagnetic field measurements and establishing a robust technical foundation for future magnetic survey satellite constellations.

文摘AZ31/Al/Ta composites were prepared using the vacuum hot compression bonding(VHCB)method.The effect of hot compressing temperature on the interface microstructure evolution,phase constitution,and shear strength at the interface was investigated.Moreover,the interface bonding mechanisms of the AZ31/Al/Ta composites during the VHCB process were explored.The results demonstrate that as the VHCB temperature increases,the phase composition of the interface between Mg and Al changes from the Mg-Al brittle intermetallic compounds(Al_(12)Mg_(17)and Al_(3)Mg_(2))to the Al-Mg solid solution.Meanwhile,the width of the Al/Ta interface diffusion layer at 450℃increases compared to that at 400℃.The shear strengths are 24 and 46 MPa at 400 and 450℃,respectively.The interfacial bonding mechanism of AZ31/Al/Ta composites involves the coexistence of diffusion and mechanical meshing.Avoiding the formation of brittle phases at the interface can significantly improve interfacial bonding strength.
文摘1.Introduction As the planets closest to the outer edge of the solar system,Uranus and Neptune,namely that of ice giants,retained a significant amount of gas from the early stages of the solar system's formation.This gas contains the physical conditions of the protostellar cloud and position information about planet formation,making ice giants important prototypes for studying both the solar system and exoplanets.
文摘Achieving vibration isolation,lightweight design,and reusability under impact remains a critical challenge for thin-walled structures.When the goat skull is subjected to impact,both the outer wall of the sinus and the internal bony struts deform simultaneously to absorb energy and protect intracranial tissues.Inspired by this mechanism,we designed the goat sinus-inspired bio mimetic(GSIB) structure by mimicking the outer wall of the sinus and the internal pillar-like support system.The structure consists of dual coupling beams,including a set of inclined cantilever beams representing the sinus outer wall and vertical support beams simulating the internal bony struts.The GSIB structure was fabricated using Selective Laser Sintering(SLS) 3D printing technology,and its mechanical properties were investigated through a combination of quasi-static compression tests,vibration tests,impact tests,and finite element simulations.Under compressive loading,the inclined cantilever beams buckle to introduce a negative stiffness effect,while the vertical supports enhance overall stiffness.Leveraging the coupling effect between these two components,the structure achieves a long-stroke constant-force response,thereby delivering superior performance in energy absorption and vibration isolation.Additionally,the special deformation mode of the GSIB structure enables it to be reused under impact conditions.It is noteworthy that,compared to the negative stiffness(NS) structure with the same dimensions for repeated buffering proposed in previous studies,the GSIB structure demonstrates an energy absorption capacity reaching 214.3% of that of the NS structure,a reduction in isolation frequency to 58.5%,and an impact acceleration that is only 66.31% of that of the NS structure.Additionally,the plateau stress of the proposed structure increases to 246.07% of that of the NS structure.This novel artificial structure provides a new design strategy for achieving superior energy absorption and impact resistance under repeated impact conditions.
文摘As space activities become increasingly central to global technological and strategic agendas,developing countries are expressing growing interest in acquiring indigenous space capabilities.However,traditional models of international space cooperation-such as satellite exports and technical joint ventures-often fail to align with the resource constraints and capacity needs of these nations.In response,spacefaring countries like Japan and India have implemented innovative,small-scale capacity-building initiatives that offer training,satellite design experience,and in-orbit deployment opportunities to emerging space actors.This study systematically examines these representative programs,identifies their defining characteristics-including cost-efficiency,full financial support,and strong international legitimacy-and assesses their broader diplomatic and strategic impact.Building on this empirical foundation,the study argues for the strategic relevance of space capacity-building as a potential new model of China’s international space cooperation.Through a tripartite analytical framework of rationale,necessity,and feasibility,the study demonstrates that China possesses both the infrastructural foundation and imperative to adopt this model.It further proposes actionable recommendations to institutionalize capacity-building programs,integrate them into flagship national space missions,and align them with China’s broader foreign policy visions.Ultimately,space capacity-building cooperation is positioned as a low-risk,high-impact approach to fostering trust,expanding influence,and promoting global space governance.
