<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>AIAA/AAS Astrodynamics Specialist Conference</title> </HEAD> <BODY BGCOLOR="ffffff"> <h2><a >AIAA/AAS Astrodynamics Specialist Conference</a> <br>August 10-12, 1998 <br>Boston, MA</h2> <H3><I>Abstract Deadline: January 5, 1998</i></h3> <p>The 1998 Astrodynamics Specialist Conference, hosted by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) and cosponsored by the American Astronautical Society (AAS), will be held in Boston, Massachusetts, and will be collocated with the <a href="http://www.aiaa.org/calendar/gnc98cfp.html #gnc"><b>AIAA Guidance, Navigation, and Control</b></a>; <a href="http://www.aiaa.org/calendar/gnc98cfp.html #afm"><b>Atmospheric Flight Mechanics</a></b>; and <a href="http://www.aiaa.org/calendar/gnc98cfp.html #mst"><b> Modeling & Simulation Technologies</a></b> conferences. The conference is organized by the AIAA <a href="http://www.aiaa.org/information/technical/astrodynamics.html"> <b>Astrodynamics Technical Committee</a></b> and the AAS Spaceflight Mechanics Technical Committee. <p>Papers are sought from all areas of astrodynamics. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: <ul><li> Orbital dynamics, perturbations, and stability <br><li> Trajectory design and optimization <br><li> Navigation, guidance and control <br><li> Attitude dynamics of rigid and flexible space structures</ul> <p>Papers which contain experimental results or current data are especially encouraged. <p>In addition, proposals are solicited for appropriate subjects for special sessions from prospective session organizers. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: <ul><li> Trajectory dynamics and control for multiple spacecraft in constellations or formations (low-Earth, lissajous, planetary, others) <br><li> Halo orbits and trajectories about libration points <br><li> Parallel processing applications in astrodynamics <br><li> Attitude control and estimation for small satellites <br><li> History and future of the U.S. space program <br><li> Panel discussions</ul> <p>Papers will be accepted on the basis of extended abstracts. The extended abstract should be about 1,000 words and should include a description of the problem addressed and results obtained, as well as a brief summary of the solution procedure and relevance to astrodynamics research. Abstracts should also contain supporting figures and/or tables. The abstract must include paper titles, names, affiliations, addresses, telephone numbers, and, if possible, fax numbers and e-mail addresses of all authors. <p>A "no paper, no podium" rule will be in effect for all presentations. An author will not be permitted to give his or her presentation if a written paper has not been prepared and made available at the conference. AIAA will not consider for presentation or publication any paper that has been or will be presented or published elsewhere. Authors will be required to sign a statement to this effect. <p>Special sessions may be as long as four hours on a selected topic. Their purpose is to invite discussion and the exchange of ideas on "hot topics" in the astrodynamics community and may take a variety of formats, e.g. panel discussion, invited speakers and/or papers, question & answer, or interactive workshop. Prospective special session organizers should submit a proposal consisting of a title, a brief description of the session of less than 500 words, and a list of proposed activities and/or speakers and titles. </p><br><p><b>Warning--Technology Transfer Considerations</b> <br>Prospective authors are reminded that technology transfer guidelines have substantially extended the time required for review of abstracts and completed papers by U.S. government agencies. Internal (company) plus external (government) review can consume 16 weeks or more. Government review is the responsibility of the author. Authors should determine the extent of approval necessary early in the paper preparation process to preclude paper withdrawals and late submissions. <p>Two copies of the extended abstract and the <a href="http://www.aiaa.org/calendar/abstract-pdf.html"><b> abstract submittal form</a></b> should be sumitted to each of the Technical Chairs listed below. The deadline for submission of the abstract is <b>January 5, 1998.</b> Formal letters of acceptance with complete instructions will be sent to authors by March 16, 1998. Final manuscripts are due to AIAA by <b>June 9, 1998.</b> Please do not use e-mail for submissions as not all word-processing software is compatible with that used by the co-chairs. </p><br><p><b>AIAA Technical Chair</b> <br>Craig Kluever <br>Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department <br>University of Missouri-Kansas City <br>Kansas City, MO 64110 <br>816/235-1278 * 816/235-1260 FAX <br><a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a> <p><b>AAS Technical Chair</b> <br>Kate Hartman <br>Goddard Space Flight Center <br>Flight Dynamics Division <br>Code 550.1 <br>Greenbelt, MD 20771 <br>301/286-5696 * 301/286-1773 FAX <br><a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></ul>
