Firstly, the simulation data were compared with experimental data to verify the accuracy of the finite element model. The process of projectiles penetrating two different protective structures was analyzed, and the overload characteristics of the projectile under different working conditions were studied. Results show that the peak overload of the projectile penetrating the light protective structure at 1200 m/s and 1700 m/s can exceed 80,000 g and 130,000 g, respectively, and the peak overload of the projectile penetrating the heavy protective structure at 1200 m/s and 1700 m/s can exceed 40,000 g and 70,000 g, respectively. When the projectile penetrates a lightweight protective structure with different material shielding layers at the same velocity, the overload peak value of penetrating the shielding layer material of reinforced concrete is greater than that of penetrating the shielding layer material of granite. The deceleration peak value of the projectile penetrating a light protective structure is larger than that of a projectile penetrating a heavy protective structure at the same velocity mainly due to the good buffering effect of the thick soil layer of the heavy protective structure.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100039,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Astronautics Science and Technology","volume":"7 3-4","pages":"177 - 195"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142963106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to its complex working environment and strict performance requirements, liquid rocket engines often face many kinds of failure risks during actual commissioning and operation. In view of the high risk of liquid rocket engine failure and the scarcity of abnormal video data in the actual commissioning process, the traditional fault monitoring methods are faced with many challenges. In response, this paper proposes a fault simulation testing methodology specifically for liquid rocket engines under complex interference conditions. A semi-physical model has been developed to mimic the abnormal states that liquid rocket engines may experience during debugging or operational activities. This model enables the collection and generation of a series of video data that closely resemble real-life fault scenarios, enhancing the effectiveness of fault monitoring and analysis. Finally, by comparing with the data of the actual test run, the simulation test data achieved a high degree of similarity, indicating that the designed simulation test can effectively simulate the actual physical process during the actual test run. Through the innovative fault simulation test method, this study successfully solved the problem of abnormal video data scarcity, and provided support for the research of liquid rocket engine video anomaly monitoring.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100039,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Astronautics Science and Technology","volume":"7 3-4","pages":"197 - 208"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142962960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, based on Tsiolkovsky’s formula, the planar interception problem is derived and a one-on-one planar interception strategy is designed. Next, the existence of solutions for planar mission is analyzed, and a multi-satellite encirclement configuration is designed based on elliptical passive flyby theory. Finally, simulation analysis is conducted on the impact of various design parameters of the planar interception configuration on the encirclement task.
