Artemis (Adams‐based Rover Terramechanics and Mobility Interaction Simulator) is a software tool developed to simulate rigid‐wheel planetary rover traverses across natural terrain surfaces. It is based on mechanically realistic rover models and the use of classical terramechanics expressions to model spatially variable wheel‐soil and wheel‐bedrock properties. Artemis's capabilities and limitations...
An integrated concept for core sample acquisition and caching with potential application to a Mars caching mission has been developed. The concept utilizes a five degree-of-freedom manipulator arm to deploy a rotary percussive coring tool as well as to provide alignment, feed, and preload for the tool. The tool provides coring, core break-off, core retention and bit capture and release for bit change-out...
