  1. 1. Predictive Controllers for Load Transportation in Microgravity Environments

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Sujet Phodapol; [2023]
    Keywords : Model Predictive Control; Decentralized control; Multi-robot systems; Space technology; Modell-prediktiv reglering; Decentraliserad reglering; Multirobotsystem; Rymdteknologi;

    Abstract : Space activities have been increasing dramatically in the past decades. As a result, the number of space debris has also increased significantly. Therefore, it is necessary to clean up and remove them to prevent a collision between space debris and spacecraft. READ MORE

  2. 2. Vacuum Chamber Adaptation for Low-Power Electric Propulsion Testing : Optimizing Anode Configuration and Electrical Interface for Hollow Cathode Testing, and Conceptualizing a Setup for Field Emission Electric Propulsion Testing

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Therese Bäckström; [2023]
    Keywords : Electric Propulsion; Field Emission Electric Propulsion Testing; FEEP Testing; Thruster Testing; Heaterless Hollow Cathode Testing; HHCTesting; Cathode Testing; Anode Design; Anode Configuration; Electrical Interface; Elektrisk Framdrivning; Fältjonisationsframdrivningstestning; Framdrivningstestning; Värmelös Hålkatodstestning; Katodtestning; Anoddesign; Anodkonfiguration; Elektriskt Gränssnitt;

    Abstract : Electric Propulsion (EP) is widely acknowledged as a crucial technology for future space missions, offering significant propellant savings and enabling exploration of planetary missions with smaller spacecraft (s/c). For precise attitude control of these smaller spacecraft, Field Emission Electric Propulsion (FEEP) has emerged as a favorable option due to its exceptional thrust controllability. READ MORE

  3. 3. Flight Dynamics Software Industrialisation for Inclined Orbits

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Pierrick Houede; [2023]
    Keywords : flight; dynamics; software; FDS; geostationary; orbit; station; keeping; uncontrolled; inclination.;

    Abstract : The geostationary orbit has many applications for Earth observation and telecommunications. Like all satellites, spacecraft in this type of orbit are affected by perturbations. These perturbations can modify the satellites trajectories and, without control, deviate them from their target position. READ MORE

  4. 4. Orientation of plasma jet fronts in the Earth's magnetotail

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi; Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen

    Author : Atlas Silverhult; [2023]
    Keywords : Space physics; plamsa; reconnection; magnetospheric multiscale; MMS; magnetosphere; minimum variance analysis; MVA;

    Abstract : This project aims to investigate the orientation of plasma jet fronts in Earth's magnetotail using multi-spacecraft measurement data. The orientations are estimated by applying minimum variance analysis (MVA) and multi-spacecraft timing analysis for finding normal vectors to the jet fronts as they pass over the spacecraft.

  5. 5. Plume-Spacecraft Interaction Analysis : Study on the Plume Effects of Hall-Effect Thrusters (HET) and High-Efficiency Multistage Plasma Thrusters (HEMPT).

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Josep Sentís Garzón; [2023]
    Keywords : Electric propulsion; Plasma plume; Plasma physics; SPIS; OpenPlume EP; Modelling; Charge-Exchange Collisions; Elektrisk framdrivning; Plasma plym; Plasmafysik; SPIS; OpenPlume EP; Modellering; Laddningsväxlingskollisioner;

    Abstract : Plume-spacecraft interactions play an important role in the performance and integrity of spacecraft during their missions in space. The study encompasses a thruster’s plume simulation and its impact on spacecraft geometries to understand and predict the effects and consequences of the impingement on spacecraft surfaces, such as erosion, contamination, forces, and torques.
