An Analysis of Penetration and Ricochet 

Phenomena in Oblique Hypervelocity Impact. William P. Schonberg, Roy A. Taylor, 

and Jennifer R. Horn. Materials and 

Processes Laboratory. N88- 18004 

This report describes the results of an experimental investigation of phenomena associated 

with the oblique hypervelocity impact of spherical 

projectiles on multi-sheet aluminum structures. A 

model that can be employed in the design of 

meteoroid and space debris protection systems for 

space structures is developed. The model consists 

of equations that relate crater and perforation 

damage of a multi-sheet structure to parameters 

such as projectile size, impact velocity, and 

trajectory obliquity. The equations are obtained 

through a regression analysis of oblique hypervelocity impact test data. This data shows that the 

response of a multi-sheet structure to oblique impact is significantly different from its response to 

normal hypervelocity impact. It was found that 

obliquely incident projectiles produce ricochet 

debris that can severely damage panels or 

instrumentation located on the exterior of a space 

structure. Obliquity effects of high-speed impact 

must, therefore, be considered in the design of 

any structure exposed to the meteoroid and space 

debris environment.

Analysis of Contamination Data Recorded 

by the IECM Camera/Photometer. K. Stuart 

Clifton and Carl M. Benson. Space Science 

Laboratory. N88-2 I246 

The Camera/Photometer was one of ten 

instruments comprising the Induced Environment 

Contamination Monitor (IECM) developed to 

monitor the contamination about the space shuttle 

Orbiter during early shuttle missions. This experiment consisted of two motion picture cameras, 

integrating photometers, and associated electronics enclosed in pressurized canisters and separated by 40 cm in order to make stereoscopic 

observation of particulates. The objectives of the 

experiment were to record the occurrence of particulates and to determine their velocities, sizes, 

and origins, as well as to measure the background 

brightness due to unresolved particles. Particle 

tracks were detected on over 1,800 data frames 

recorded during continuous operations throughout 

STS-2, -3, -4, and -9. This report discusses the 

analysis techniques employed in reducing the 

subsequent results, with an emphasis placed on 

particle size and velocity data. It also describes 

the operation of the overall experiment and some 

of the results obtained.

Analysis of the Performance of the Space 

Ultravacuum Research Facility in Attached 

and Free-Flyer Mode. Robert J. Naumann. 

Space Science Laboratory. N88-26387 

The old concept of using the wake of a 

spacecraft to obtain an ultrahigh vacuum is revisited with a somewhat different emphasis. Since it 

is possible to configure a wake shield so that a 

surface of interest does not subtend any walls that 

could become contaminated, it appears that it 

should be possible to achieve a contaminationfree, ultrahigh vacuum capability with infinite 

pumping speed even in the presence of high heat 

loads and moderate gas loads. With the new 

interest in developing thin films with precision 

controlled synthetic microstructures such as 

superlattices, mixed metal oxide high temperature 

superconductors, rare-Earth magneto-optical 

devices, and nano-crystalline alloys, the ability to 

work with a variety of different materials without 

cross contamination should be of significant 

importance. This paper analyzes the performance 

of the conceptual design for a Space Ultravacuum 

Research Facility (SURF), both in a Shuttleattached mode and as a free-flyer. It is shown that 

even in the Shuttle-attached mode, it should be 

possible to obtain vacuum levels equivalent to 

IO-“’ Torr with 0 and N2 as the primary constituents. This should be sufficient to demonstrate 

the feasibility of the concept, particularly the 

infinite pumping speed and virtual elimination of 

contamination aspects. As a free-flyer the SURF 

will be limited primarily by the gas load associated with the process being performed. For 

chemical beam epitaxy (CBE) it is shown that 

equivalent vacuum levels of Torr should be 

possible at 300 km.

rocket nozzles I'or the minimum pressure consistent with specified values 01' nozzle exit diameter. combustion-gas flow rate. and v;ici~uni 

specific impulse. Since the latter two quantities 

are the components of vacuum thrust, purametric 

studies of constant-thrust conditions may also be 

made. Although the computer implementation 

employed is described in an appendix, necessary 

calculations can also be made with an iterative 

method requiring no computer capability beyond 

that of running the NASA-LEWIS program itself. 

This iteration is also described in an appendix. 

The procedure developed was originally 

programmed on ;I CDC 760 computer under the 

designation MINPRESS. The procedure has now 

been programmed on the VAX computer at 

Marshall Space Flight Center as LEWIS 2. Both 

versions generate tables of nozzle expansion and 

pressure ratios so that the tabular inputs described 

in this documentation are not required. 

Application of the LEWIS 2 program to the 

parametric design of possible liquid booster alternatives to the solid boosters of the Space Shuttle 

is illustrated in Appendix V.

Effects of Natural Environment on First 

Generation Solid Rocket Booster Thermal 

Protection System Materials. D. D. Webb. 

Materials and Processes Laboratory. 

N88-24 1 13 

This report summarizes the effort to demonstrate, by real-time exposure, the effects of the 

natural environment at Kennedy Space Center, 

Florida, upon the Thermal Protection System 

(TPS) of the Solid Rocket Booster (SRB), and to 

verify that the overall SRB TPS configuration 

meets all requirements for resistance to the conditions associated with outdoor weathering, including: (I) solar radiation, (2) temperature, (3) 

humidity, (4) precipitation, (5) wind, (6) sand/ 

dust abrasion, (7) static electricity, (8) salt spray, 

(9) fungus, and (10) atmospheric oxidants. 

The evaluation criterion for this project was 

based upon flatwise tensile properties, visual inspection, color change, and thermal performance. 

Based upon the evaluation of the changes in these 

properties, it is concluded that properly applied 

and topcoat-protected TPS can satisfactorily withstand the conditions of the natural environment at 

KSC for exposures up to six months.

A Preliminary Review of Organic Materials 

Single Crystal Growth by the Czochralski 

Technique. B. G. Penn. A. W. Shields, and 

D. 0. Frazier. Space Science Laboratory. 

The growth of single crystals of organic 

compounds by the Czochralski method has been 

reviewed. From the literature, single crystals of 

benzil, a nonlinear optical material with a d, I 

value of I I .2 * 1.5 x d, I value of a quartz, has 

fewer dislocations than generally contained in 

Bridgman crystals. More perfect crystals were 

grown by repeated Czochralski growth. This consists of etching away the defect-containing portion of a Czochralski grown crystal and using it as 

a seed for further growth. Other compounds used 

to grow single crystals are benzophenone, 12- 

tricosanone (laurone), and salol. The physical 

properties, growth apparatus, and processing conditions presented in the literature are discussed. 

Moreover, some of the possible advantages of 

growing single crystals of organic compounds in

Analysis of the Bivariate Parameter Wind 

Differences Between Jimsphere and Windsonde. Michael Susko. Structures and 

Dynamics Laboratory. N88- I046 1 

The purpose of this report is to present an 

analysis of the bivariate parameter differences 

between the FPS- 16 RadadJimsphere and the 

Meteorological Sounding System (MSS) Windsonde. The Jimsphere is used as the standard to 

measure the ascent wind loads during the Space 

Shuttle launches at Kennedy Space Center, 

Florida, and the Windsonde is the backup system. 

In addition, in the report a discussion of the 

terrestrial environment (below 20 km) and a 

description of the Jimsphere and Windsonde wind 

sensors are given. Computation of the wind statistics from 64 paired Jimsphere and Windsonde 

balloon releases in support of 14 Space Shuttle 

launches shows good agreement between the two 

wind sensors. 

The computed difference values in m/s of the 

mean zonal wind (U) and mean meridional wind 

(V) of the Jimsphere and Windsonde at 500 m intervals from the surface to 16 km shows good 

agreement between the wind components. The (G) 

and (V) mean differences for the 64 paired observations were 0.16 and 0.22 m/s, respectively, 

while the standard deviations of the mean differences of G and V were 1.38 and 1.73 m/s, 

respectively .

This report presents the results of a pre-phase 

A study performed by the Marshall Space Flight 

Center’s (MSFC) Solar Science Branch for the 

Air Force Geophysics Laboratory (AFGL) to 

develop a design concept for a space-based solar 

vector magnetograph and hydrogen-alpha telescope. As two of the three core instruments for 

the proposed AFGL Solar Activity Measurements 

Experiments (SAMEX) satellite, these instruments were designed to provide high-resolution 

observations of the solar magnetic field in the 

photosphere and chromosphere. The MSFC 

ground-based vector magnetograph served as the 

prototype for the space-based instrument. The 

primary scientific objective of the SAMEX mission is to understand the role of the Sun’s magnetic field in the physics of solar flares. This and 

other related objectives developed for the 

SAMEX niission imposed the following instrumental requirements on the vector magnetograph: 

(I) a temporal resolution of <5 niin, (2) a field of 

view of 4.3 x 8.5 arc min to cover most active 

regions, (3) a spatial resolution of 0.5 arc sec, (4) 

a spectral range covering the wavelengths from 

524.3 to 525.4 nm, and (5) a polarimetric sensitivity of IO-‘ to measure the solar magnetic field 

with greater accuracy than has been done with any 

other system. The polarimetric accuracy of 

was obtained through the use of specially 

designed optical coatings on the fore-optics and 

the design of a unique polarimeter. To obtain 

observations of entire active regions with 0.5 arc

Storing hydrogen on board the Space Station 

presents both sat‘ety and logistics problems. Conventional storage using pressurized bottles 

requires large masses, pressures, and volumes to 

handle the hydrogen which will be used by 

experiments in the U.S. Laboratory Module and 

residual hydrogen generated by the ECLSS. 

Rechargeable metal hydrides may be competitive 

with conventional storage techniques. The basic 

theory of hydride behavior is presented and the 

engineering properties of LaNis are discussed to 

gain a clear understanding of the potential of 

metal hydrides for handling spacecraft hydrogen 

resources. Applications to the Space Station and 

the safety ot’ metal hydrides are presented and 

compared to conventional pressurized storage. 

This comparison indicates metal hydrides may be

Preparative Electrophoresis for Space. Percy 

H. Rhodes and Robert S. Snyder. Space 

Science Laboratory. N88- 10977 

A basic premise of continuous flow electrophoresis is that removal of buoyancy-induced 

thermal convection caused by axial and lateral 

temperature gradients will result in ideal performance of these instruments in space. Although 

these gravity dependent phenomena disturb the 

rectilinear flow in the separation chamber when 

high voltage gradients and/or thick chambers are 

used, distortion of the injected sample stream due 

to e I e c tro h y d rod y n am i c effects causes major 

broadening of the separated bands. 

Although the electrophoresis separation 

process is simple in concept, flows local to the 

sample filament produced by the applied electric 

field have not been considered. These electrohydrodynamic flows, l’ormulated by (3. I. Taylor 

in 1965 for drops suspended in various liquids, 

distort the sample stream and limit the separation. 

In addition, electroosmosis and viscous flow, 

which are inherent in the continuous llow electrophoresis device, combine to further disturb the 

process. Electroosmosis causes a flow in the 

chamber cross section which directly distorts the 

sample stream, while viscous flow causes a 

parabolic profile to develop in the flow plane. 

This flow profile in turn distorts migration by 

causing a varying residence time across the thickness of the chamber. Thus, sample constituents at 

the center plane will be in the electric field a 

shorter time and hence move less than comparable 

constituents closer to the chamber wall. 

A moving wall concept is being proposed for 

space which will eliminate and/or control all of 

the above-mentioned disturbances. The moving 

wall will entrain the fluid to move as a rigid body 

and hence produce a constant residence time for 

all samples distributed across the chamber thickness. By aligning the moving wall at an angle to 

the chamber axis, a component of the moving 

wall motion can be made to oppose and hence 

cancel the electroosmotic flow. In the absence of 

10 

electrokinetic effects, i.e., electroosmosis, the 

e I e c t ro - h y d rod y n a m i c a I e f fe c t in an i fe s t s its e I I as 

a ribbon, being either vertical (perpendicular to 

the electric field) or horizontal (aligned with the 

electric field) depending on the ratio of conductivity of the sample to that of the buffer. 

Therefore, by using low conductivity sample 

solutions to provide a vertical ribbon, the moving 

wall concept should produce distortion-l‘ree 

separations . 

The moving wall electrophoresis chamber 

can only be operated in space because there is no 

viscous Ilow in the chamber to stabilize against 

thermal convection. Laboratory prototype instruments have been built which conl’irm the sensitivity 01’ their operation. These prototypes have 

also identil’ied engineering problems such ;I> 

liquid seals. However, the moving wall electrophoresis system is a concept clesignecl I‘or space 

which should permit prcparative electrophoresis 

to attain its potential.

In 1978, McDonneII IhigIas Astronautics 

Company (MDAC) began discussions with 

NASA on the opportunities to develop ;I space 

continuous Ilow electrophoresis system (CFES) 

that would incorporate specit’ic moclil’ic ’;I I’ ions to

(JEA) that allocated certain Ilights on the Space 

Shuttle to MDAC in return I’or opportunities IOr 

NASA and interested scientists to clo research in 

the MDAC laboratory and on their space instruments was made. 

Under terms of the JEA, NASA was provided an opportunity to process two samples on 

STS-6. All experiment objectives and operational 

parameters, such as applied field, sample residence time in the field, and bul’fer composition 
__~~ ~~- ~ 

NASA TECHNICAL PAPF%S 

had to accommodate the MDAC capabilities and 

NASA flight constraints. The NASA objectives 

were formulated so as to include investigation of 

the sample concentration effects reported by 

MDAC on STS-4. The specific objectives were 

(I) to use a model sample material at a high concentration to evaluate the continuous flow electrophoresis process in the MDAC CFES instrument 

and compare its separation resolution and sample 

throughput with related devices on Earth and (2) 

to expand our basic knowledge of the limitations 

imposed by fluid tlows and particle concentration 

effects on the electrophoresis process by careful 

design and evaluation of the space experiment. 

Because the MDAC instrumentation did not 

include sample mixing facilities, cell separation 

procedures were precluded and after a variety of 

soluble materials were considered, hemoglobin 

and polysaccharide were selected as primary 

samples. The results from space show a large 

band spread of the high concentration of the 

single species of hemoglobin that was principally 

due to the mismatch of electrical conductivity 

between the sample and buffer. 

The seventh mission of the Space Shuttle 

carried two additional NASA experiments in the 

CFES instrument. The major objective was to 

evaluate the intluence of the electrical properties 

of the sample constituents on the resolution of the 

continuous flow electrophoresis device. As 

expected. the polystyrene latex microspheres dispersed in a solution with three times the electrical 

conductivity of the curtain buffer separated with a 

significantly larger band spread than in to the 

second experiment under matched conductivity 

conditions. The structure of the bands is also different between the samples, and laboratory experiments have been conducted to further evaluate the 

phenomena affecting the electrophoresis. The 

analysis of both flight results is nearing completion and a qualitative explanation based upon the

mismatch is

the failure of conventional Bridgman-Stockbarger 

growth methods to produce high quality

which arise from the dependence of the thermophysical properties on temperature and composition and from the large amount of heat carried by

the Minimum Hamiltonian Ascent Shuttle Trajectory Evaluation program, which is a three-degreeof-freedom moment balance simulation of shuttle

strategy was employed to maximize injection 

weight as a function of maximum dynamic 

pressure constraint and Solid Rocket Motor 

burnrate. Performance Reference Mission Four 

trajectory groundrules were used in all cases for 

consistency. The major conclusions are that for 

heads-up ascent and a mission nominal design

This paper describes LI generalized method 

for controlling a six degree-of-freedom (DOF) 

robot and a two DOF positioner used for arc welding operations. The welding path is defined in the 

part reference frame. and robotipositioner joint 

angles of the equivalent eight DOF serial linkage 

are determined via an iterative solution. Three 

algorithms are presented: the first solution controls motion of the eight DOF mechanism such 

that proper torch motion is achieved while 

minimizing the sum-of-squares of joint displacements; the second algorithm adds two constraint equations to achieve torch control while 

maintaining part orientation so that welding 

occurs in the downhand position; and the third 

algorithm adds the ability to control the proper 

orientation of a wire feed mechanism used in gas 

tungsten arc (GTA) welding operations. A 

verification of these algorithms is given using 

ROBOSIM, a NASA developed computer 

graphic simulation software package designed for

cylindrical samples have indicated that the initial 

hydrogen distributions are essentially uniform in 

nature on charging at 25°C. attributed to the fact 

that there is a larger number of interstitial positions available in the hexagonal close-packed 

titanium structure. Both electrochemical and fusion measurements show that about all hydrogen 

is of the trapped variety in these materials on 

electrolytic charging and the stability of the metal 

hydrides is quite high. Stress has the effect of 

releasing trapped hydrogen to form the mobile 

variety, a result which may require a reevaluation of the effect of stress on hydrogen 

movement. The structures of pure titanium and 

the titanium alloys are also discussed as well as 

the nature of bonding in these alloys.
