Evaluation of Modeled Diurnal Warming Estimates for Application to Producing Sea Surface Temperature Analyses

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 11, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Accurate knowledge of the amount of diurnal warming present in sea surface temperature (SST) observations at different times and effective depths is important for multiple applications including the production of blended SST analyses. This work explores the ability of a modified Kantha‐Clayson‐type one‐dimensional mixed layer ocean model with ...

Applications of Parallel Processing to Astrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1997
AbstractParallel processing is being used to improve the catalog of earth orbiting satellites and for problems associated with the catalog. Initial efforts centered around using SIMD parallel processors to perform debris conjunction analysis and satellite dynamics studies.

The evolution of lunar communication—From the beginning to the present

open access: yesInternational Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, Volume 42, Issue 3, Page 200-216, May/June 2024.
Since the beginning of the space age, the Moon has been the target of many missions from the 1950s to the present day. Radio communication plays a fundamental role in space vehicle projects because this is the most obvious way to communicate with the ground station and transmit control commands and scientific data.

A Design Method for Redundant Microthruster Layout With Allocation Error

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The microthruster is generally chosen as the actuator of the drag‐free satellite control system, and the layout directly affects the stability of the satellite control. Due to the extremely rigorous objectives of drag‐free control, a design method for the redundant thruster layout is proposed in this paper to improve the control stability of the ...

Mappings in Astrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1992
We review mappings mainly devised for the study of the dynamics of comets and asteroids. An attempt of a typology according to the method used to devise the mapping and to its deterministic or stochastic character is made.
