Integrated at the instrument level in their mothership they support small solar system body studies. With efficient capabilities, resource-friendly design and inherent robustness they are an attractive exploration mission element. We discuss advantages and constraints of small sub-spacecraft, focusing on emerging areas of activity such as asteroid diversity studies, planetary defence, and asteroid mining, on the background of our projects PHILAE, MASCOT, MASCOT2, the JAXA-DLR Solar Power Sail Lander Design Study, and others. The GOSSAMER-1 solar sail deployment concept also involves independent separable sub-spacecraft operating synchronized to deploy the sail. Small spacecraft require big changes in the way we do things and occasionally a little more effort than would be anticipated based on a traditional large spacecraft approach. In a Constraints-Driven Engineering environment we apply Concurrent Design and Engineering (CD/CE), Concurrent Assembly, Integration and Verification (CAIV) and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Near-term solar sails will likely be small spacecraft which we expect to harmonize well with nano-scale separable instrument payload packages.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GrundmannMessBieleetal.2017, author = {Grundmann, Jan Thimo and Meß, Jan-Gerd and Biele, Jens and Seefeldt, Patric and Dachwald, Bernd and Spietz, Peter and Grimm, Christian D. and Spr{\"o}witz, Tom and Lange, Caroline and Ulamec, Stephan}, title = {Small spacecraft in small solar system body applications}, series = {IEEE Aerospace Conference 2017, Big Sky, Montana, USA}, booktitle = {IEEE Aerospace Conference 2017, Big Sky, Montana, USA}, organization = {IEEE Aerospace Conference}, isbn = {978-1-5090-1613-6}, doi = {10.1109/AERO.2017.7943626}, pages = {1 -- 20}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PeloniDachwaldCeriotti2017, author = {Peloni, Alessandro and Dachwald, Bernd and Ceriotti, Matteo}, title = {Multiple NEA rendezvous mission: Solar sailing options}, series = {Fourth International Symposium on Solar Sailing}, booktitle = {Fourth International Symposium on Solar Sailing}, pages = {1 -- 11}, year = {2017}, abstract = {The scientific interest in near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) and the classification of some of those as potentially hazardous asteroid for the Earth stipulated the interest in NEA exploration. Close-up observations of these objects will increase drastically our knowledge about the overall NEA population. For this reason, a multiple NEA rendezvous mission through solar sailing is investigated, taking advantage of the propellantless nature of this groundbreaking propulsion technology. Considering a spacecraft based on the DLR/ESA Gossamer technology, this work focuses on the search of possible sequences of NEA encounters. The effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated through a number of fully-optimized trajectories. The results show that it is possible to visit five NEAs within 10 years with near-term solar-sail technology. Moreover, a study on a reduced NEA database demonstrates the reliability of the approach used, showing that 58\% of the sequences found with an approximated trajectory model can be converted into real solar-sail trajectories. Lastly, this second study shows the effectiveness of the proposed automatic optimization algorithm, which is able to find solutions for a large number of mission scenarios without any input required from the user.}, language = {en} } @misc{ArtmannLinderBayeretal.2017, author = {Artmann, Gerhard and Linder, Peter and Bayer, Robin and Gossmann, Matthias}, title = {Celldrum electrode arrangement for measuring mechanical stress [Patent of invention]}, publisher = {WIPO}, address = {Geneva}, pages = {18 Seiten}, year = {2017}, abstract = {The invention pertains to a CellDrum electrode arrangement for measuring mechanical stress, comprising a mechanical holder (1 ) and a non-conductive membrane (4), whereby the membrane (4) is at least partially fixed at its circumference to the mechanical holder (1), keeping it in place when the membrane (4) may bend due to forces acting on the membrane (4), the mechanical holder (1) and the membrane (4) forming a container, whereby the membrane (1) within the container comprises an cell- membrane compound layer or biological material (3) adhered to the deformable membrane 4 which in response to stimulation by an agent may exert mechanical stress to the membrane (4) such that the membrane bending stage changes whereby the container may be filled with an electrolyte, whereby an electric contact (2) is arranged allowing to contact said electrolyte when filled into to the container, whereby within a predefined geometry to the fixing of the membrane (4) an electrode (7) is arranged, whereby the electrode (7) is electrically insulated with respect to the electric contact (2) as well as said electrolyte, whereby mechanical stress due to an agent may be measured as a change in capacitance.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FunkeKeinzHendrick2017, author = {Funke, Harald and Keinz, Jan and Hendrick, P.}, title = {Experimental Evaluation of the Pollutant and Noise Emissions of the GTCP 36-300 Gas Turbine Operated with Kerosene and a Low NOX Micromix Hydrogen Combustor}, series = {7th European Conference for Aeronautics and Space Sciences, EUCASS 2017}, booktitle = {7th European Conference for Aeronautics and Space Sciences, EUCASS 2017}, organization = {7th European Conference for Aeronautics and Space Sciences, EUCASS 2017-125, Milan, Italy, July 2017}, doi = {10.13009/EUCASS2017-125}, pages = {10 Seiten}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StrieganHajAyedFunkeetal.2017, author = {Striegan, C. and Haj Ayed, A. and Funke, Harald and Loechle, S. and Kazari, M. and Horikawa, A. and Okada, K. and Koga, K.}, title = {Numerical combustion and heat transfer simulations and validation for a hydrogen fueled "micromix" test combustor in industrial gas turbine applications}, series = {Proceedings of the ASME Turbo Expo}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the ASME Turbo Expo}, number = {Volume Part F130041-4B, 2017}, isbn = {978-079185085-5}, doi = {10.1115/GT2017-64719}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{WeberRuffStahl2017, author = {Weber, Tobias and Ruff-Stahl, Hans-Joachim K.}, title = {Advances in Composite Manufacturing of Helicopter Parts}, series = {International Journal of Aviation, Aeronautics, and Aerospace}, volume = {4}, journal = {International Journal of Aviation, Aeronautics, and Aerospace}, number = {1}, issn = {2374-6793}, doi = {10.15394/ijaaa.2017.1153}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{WeberArentSteffenetal.2017, author = {Weber, Tobias and Arent, Jan-Christoph and Steffen, Lucas and Balvers, Johannes M. and Duhovic, Miro}, title = {Thermal optimization of composite autoclave molds using the shift factor approach for boundary condition estimation}, series = {Journal of Composite Materials}, volume = {51}, journal = {Journal of Composite Materials}, number = {12}, publisher = {Sage}, address = {London}, issn = {1530-793X}, doi = {10.1177/0021998317699868}, pages = {1753 -- 1767}, year = {2017}, language = {en} }
