Very low strengths of interplanetary meteoroids and small asteroids (2011, background): “Holsapple (2007) considered geological-like materials that have tensile and cohesive strength and estimated maximal possible spin rates of asteroids in dependence on their shape, density, size, and material strength.”
Binary asteroid population 1. Angular momentum content (2007, background): “It is also an upper limit for real bodies that deviate from the ideal ellipsoid (see Holsapple, 2001). Real asteroids have a/b < 3, so αLmax(90 ◦) < 1.37. The angle of friction in real asteroids is unknown, but it is expected to be on an order of 40◦ (Richardson et al., 2005). Holsapple (2001) calcu”
Spin-up of rubble-pile asteroids: Disruption, satellite formation, and equilibrium shapes (2012, background): “The equilibrium shape that a deformable body will take for a given spin depends on the internal structure of the body (see e.g., Holsapple, 2007).”
Scaling forces to asteroid surfaces: The role of cohesion (2010, background): “The connection between Holsapple’s shear model and the current model should be explored and understood in the future, but is not addressed in detail here.”
THE ACTIVE ASTEROIDS (2011, background): “…loss, no comprehensive models of asteroid evolution and disruption by rotation have been computed, although many interesting approximations exist (Holsapple 2007, 2010, Walsh et al., 2008, 2012, Jacobson and Scheeres 2011, Marzari et al., 2011, Hirabayashi et al., 2014a, Sanchez and Scheeres…”
ORBITS AND MASSES OF THE SATELLITES OF THE DWARF PLANET HAUMEA (2003 EL61) (2009, methodology): “…the line-of-sight (like the satellites’ orbits), and assuming the shape is that of a Jacobi ellipsoid (a homogeneous fluid), the photometric light curve can be used to determine the size, shape, albedo, and density of Haumea (Rabinowitz et al. 2006; Lacerda & Jewitt 2007, but see Holsapple 2007).”
