Aerocapture Optimization Method with Lift–Drag Joint Modulation Suitable for Variable Structure Spacecraft
Aerocapture, the action of delivering a vehicle from a hyperbolic orbit to a planetary orbit by using the aerodynamic force, could potentially lower fuel consumption. By controlling the direction and size of the aerodynamic force, the vehicle can accurately enter the target orbit. This paper focuses...
