Inertial Energy Storage Integration with Wind Power Generation Using Transgenerator–Flywheel Technology

open access: yesEnergies
A new type of generator, a transgenerator, is introduced, which integrates the wind turbine and flywheel into one system, aiming to make flywheel-distributed energy storage (FDES) more modular and scalable than the conventional FDES.

Active nutation controller [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
An apparatus is described for controlling nutation motion in a spinning body, comprised of an angular accelerometer with its input axis perpendicular to the spin axis of the body, a flywheel with an axis of rotation perpendicular to the axis of the ...

All Is Relative—A Call for Considering “Physiologically Informed” Control Conditions to Improve the Mechanistic Understanding of the Effects of Physical Exercise on Cognition

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is a growing interest in elucidating the mechanisms that drive the benefits of physical exercise on cognitive performance. A key element for a better understanding of a particular phenomenon (e.g., the mediators of the exercise‐cognition interaction) is the selection of an appropriate control condition/group as the basis for causal ...

Spaceflight and sport science: Physiological monitoring and countermeasures for the astronaut–athlete on Mars exploration missions

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight impacts essentially every system in the human body, resulting in multisystem deconditioning that might impair the health and performance of crewmembers, particularly on long‐duration exploration missions to Mars. In this review, we apply the sport science model of athlete monitoring, testing and training to astronauts;

Design and analysis of a high‐integration and low‐loss bearingless flywheel motor in vehicle

open access: yesElectronics Letters, 2021
This study investigates an outer rotor bearingless flywheel motor for flywheel batteries in vehicle that exhibits the advantages of high integration and low loss due to outer rotor direct‐drive and bearingless technologies.

A summary of the 1983 Integrated Flywheel Technology Workshop [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The use of flywheels to perform the functions of attitude control and/or energy storage on a variety of space missions was studied. Integrated Flywheel Technology was discussed.

Isometric training at longer muscle–tendon complex lengths: A potential countermeasure to impaired neuro‐muscle–tendon function during space travel

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Manned space exploration to distant destinations, including Mars, continues to be an aspiration of humankind. Space travel does, however, present many challenges to the body, amongst which adaptation to microgravity is perhaps the largest. For instance, both short and long manned spaceflight missions have shown substantial deleterious effects ...

Cyclic utilization control for regenerative braking energy of metro based on high speed flywheel array

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2019
In order to realize the cyclic utilization for the regenerative braking energy of a metro, a high-speed flywheel array based on high power density and long life is adopted. First, a regenerative energy braking system with a flywheel array is constructed.

Motion restraining device [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
A motion-restraining device for dissipating at a controlled rate the force of a moving body is discussed. The device is characterized by a drive shaft adapted to be driven in rotation by a moving body connected to a tape wound about a reel mounted on the

ATHLETIC: An exoskeleton countermeasure exercise device for resistive and plyometric training in deep‐space missions

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prolonged exposure to weightlessness leads to loss of muscle and bone mass. Therefore, astronauts on board the International Space Station (ISS) currently perform mandatory daily exercises. ISS missions usually last 6 months, and future missions will become significantly longer when going, for example, to Mars.
