Journal Article
Pushparaj, N., Baresi, N., & Kawakatsu, Y. (2024). Optimization of MMX relative quasi-satellite transfer trajectories using primer vector theory. Acta Astronautica, 225, 390-401. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actaastro.2024.09.031

Quasi-satellite orbits (QSO) are stable retrograde parking orbits around Phobos that are currently being considered for JAXA’s upcoming robotic sample return mission Maritan Moons Exploration (MMX). During the proximity operations o... Read More about Optimization of MMX relative quasi-satellite transfer trajectories using primer vector theory.

Towards isolated roughness induced boundary layer transition at supersonic speeds (2024)
Journal Article
González, L. E. M., & Dakka, S. M. (2024). Towards isolated roughness induced boundary layer transition at supersonic speeds. International Journal of Scientific and Technical Research in Engineering, 9(2), 1-16

The height of surface roughness elements affects the onset of laminar to turbulent transition in a boundary layer. CFD studies have been accomplished using RANS models at very low speeds, as a first step towards the understanding of this technology i...
