Abstract: | Orbital maneuver transfer time optimization is traditionally accomplished using direct numerical sampling to find the mission
design with the lowest delta-v requirements. The availability of explicit time series solutions to the Lambert orbit determination
problem allows for the total delta-v of a series of orbital maneuvers to be expressed as an algebraic function of only the
individual transfer times. The delta-v function is then minimized for a series of maneuvers by finding the optimal transfer
times for each orbital arc. Results are shown for the classical example of the Hohmann transfer, a noncoplanar transfer as
well as an interplanetary fly-by mission to the asteroids Pallas and Juno. |
