Hypervelocity Impacts on Satellite Sandwich Structures—A Review of Experimental Findings and Predictive Models
Sandwich panels are widely used in the design of unmanned satellites and, in addition to having a structural function, can often serve as shielding, protecting the satellites’ equipment from hypervelocity impacts (HVI) of orbital debris and micrometeoroids. This paper provides a comprehensive review...
