项目摘要

My research focuses on new use cases of solar sails for LEO applications. Solar sails traditionally operate in deep space, beyond Earth orbit. Their use in LEO appears promising yet has received limited attention until now. During my JSPS DC2 Fellowship (April-September 2022), I delivered two main outputs: (i) a high-fidelity simulator of the LEO environment, considering the unique modelling requirements of solar sails in this region; and (ii) I employed the simulator to shed light on the fundamental orbit and attitude dynamic characteristics of LEO solar sails.Subsequently, during my JSPS PD Fellowship (October 2022) and Assistant Professorship (November 2022 - present), I extended and used the in-house orbit-attitude simulator, combined with knowledge gained on the dynamics via novel analytical tools, to design and evaluate new mission concepts for LEO solar sails. Thanks to financial support from JSPS, I was able to present the results at an international conference, where I received interest in my research and helpful suggestions for future work. In addition, I have submitted four papers on the research conducted during my JSPS DC2 and PD Fellowships to international journals, of which one is now in press, two under second review, and one under first review.In summary, I was able to successfully achieve all of the main research objectives of my JSPS PD Fellowship.

我的研究重点是用于LEO应用的新型太阳能帆。太阳帆传统上在深空，超越地球轨道。他们在狮子座中的使用似乎很有前途，但迄今已受到有限的关注。在我的JSPS DC2奖学金（2022年4月至9月）期间，我交付了两个主要输出：（i）考虑到该地区太阳能航行的独特建模要求，狮子座环境的高保真模拟器；（ii）我采用模拟器来阐明狮子座太阳能航行的基本轨道和态度动态特征。随后，在我的JSPS PD奖学金（2022年10月）和助理教授（2022年11月 - 现在）中，我扩展并使用了内部范围的模拟器，并通过新的概念进行了概念，并通过新的概念进行了概念，并构成了新颖的工具，并在概念上进行了概念，并构成了新颖的元素，并使用了新颖的元素。太阳帆。多亏了JSP的财政支持，我能够在国际会议上介绍结果，在那里我对研究的兴趣以及对未来工作的有益建议。此外，我已经向国际期刊提交了有关JSPS DC2和PD奖学金期间进行的研究的四篇论文，其中一篇是新闻界，两篇是新闻界，两篇是第二次评论，一份是第一次审查。总而言之，我能够成功地实现JSPS PD PRESHIPHIP的所有主要研究目标。
