Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

A GUI based meteoroid and orbital debris risk assessment system(MODRAS) is developed for assessing risks to spacecraft from meteoroid and debris impact.Instance a spacecraft as an example for M/OD risk assessment is conducted.The distribution of debris flux,exposed area of spacecraft and impact data are obtained.The results show that the relative impact possibility for a spacecraft depends on the spacecraft's altitude and orbital inclination,as well as debris size.Changes in shuttle mission operations,flight rules,and flight planning were adopted to reduce meteoroid and debris risks.
