In many practical situations, we know the values of some quantities x1, ..., xn, we know the relations between these quantities, the desired quantity y, and maybe some auxiliary quantities, and we want to estimate y. There exist automatic tools for such estimations - called program synthesis tools. A program synthesis tool usually generates a program for computing y. In many cases, however, several...
One of the most challenging issues in astrodynamic is the control of the satellites, in order to achieve a certain trajectory or to maintain some specific position with respect to a planet or to other spacecrafts. An interesting and quite innovative problem is the control of satellites around the five Lagrangian points of a binary system, using continuous thrust. In this work, using a complex and...
The aim of this article is to analyse the results obtained when using a genetic algorithm (GA) to optimise the interplanetary trajectory of a spacecraft. The desired trajectory should visit Saturn, after performing a gravitational assistance or fly-by in planet Mars. The GA tunes a set of variables, in order to achieve the mission purpose while satisfying the constraints and minimizing the delta-V...
