We assume a single impulse to be applied in each case when the spacecraft approaches a celestial body. Some optimal trajectories ofEJS, EMS, EVEJS and EVVEJS flying sequences are obtained using five global optimization algorithms: DE, PSO, DP, the hybrid algorithm PSODE and another hybrid algorithm, DPDE. DE is proved to be supe- rior to other non-hybrid algorithms in the trajectory optimi- zation problem. The hybrid algorithm of PSO and DE can improve the optimization performance of DE, which is vali- dated by the mission to Saturn with given swingby sequences. Finally, the optimization results of four different swingby sequences are compared with those of the ACT of ESA.展开更多
