Journal ArticleDOI

Ricochets on asteroids: Experimental study of low velocity grazing impacts into granular media

TL;DR: Constraints on projectile radius, velocity and impact angle that would allow projectiles on asteroids to ricochet or roll away from impact, finally coming to rest distant from their initial impact sites are estimated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rolling resistance of a spherical pod on a granular bed

TL;DR: In this article, the motion of a spherical ball rolling without slipping or plowing on a granular bed is studied, and it is shown that little to no plowing of the spheres into the granular substrate occurs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Asteroid Evolution: Role of Geotechnical Properties

TL;DR: The role of geotechnical properties of granular asteroids in their formation, evolution and possible disruption is discussed in this article, with a brief review and latest results of the work.
