Robust multi-fidelity design of a micro re-entry unmanned space vehicle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This article addresses the preliminary robust design of a small-scale re-entry unmanned space vehicle by means of a hybrid optimization technique. The approach, developed in this article, closely couples an evolutionary multi-objective algorithm with a ...

Multiplying Elements of Fragmentation? Polycentrism, the Launcher Crisis and the Future of Europe in Space

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explores the current controversies surrounding the European Ariane launcher and its implications for the future of European space governance. The Ariane program, historically a symbol of European technopolitical integration, faces mounting challenges due to delays, rising costs and increasing competition from private actors like ...

Artificial three-body equilibria for hybrid low-thrust propulsion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This paper proposes a new concept of creating artificial equilibrium points in the circular restricted three body problem, where the third body uses a hybrid of solar sail and solar electric propulsion.

What can lithics tell us about food production during the transition to farming? Exploring harvesting practices and cultural changes during the neolithic in Southwest Asia: a view from Qminas (north‐western Syria)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the continuity and change in harvesting practices between the Late Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B (LPPNB) and the Early Pottery Neolithic at Qminas, north‐western Levant, through a traceological analysis of flint sickles. By combining qualitative traceological analysis with quantitative functional approaches, we demonstrate that ...

InterPLAY: A Framework to Describe Play and STEM Engagement at Exhibits for Young Children

open access: yesCurator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Play‐based STEM learning at exhibits is a feature of children's museums and science centers; yet little is known about how these exhibits support young children's STEM engagement. This study developed and tested the interPLAY Framework to describe play‐based STEM engagement at exhibits for young children.
