The semi-empirical ballistic limit equations (BLEs)defining the protection capability of the shield system are given, and the shielding performance is also discussed. The corrugation stuffed shield (CKS) is more effective than stuffed Whipple shield for M/OD protection, and its shielding performance will be improved significantly as increasing the impact angle. Orbital debris up to 1 cm in diameter can be shielded effectively as increasing the impact angle to 25° at the corrugated angle of 30°. The results are significant to spacecraft design.展开更多

Smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code in LS-DYNA was employed for the simulation of hypervelocity impact on the double-wall structure. By using elementary shock wave theory, the experimental results above are analyzed. The analysis can provide an explanation for the penetration mechanism of hypervelocity projectile impact on double-wall structure about the effect of front wall thickness and impact velocity..展开更多
