Dynamics Modeling and Simulation of a Net Closing Mechanism for Tether-Net Capture

Tether-net is a promising active debris removal technique, and a closing mechanism can ensure the reliable wrapping of space debris by using tether-net. This study focuses on the dynamics model of the split closing mechanism and the sliding joint between thread and ring. First, a new kind of closing...
