Development of Precise Lunar Orbit Propagator and Lunar Polar Orbiter’s Lifetime Analysis [PDF]
To prepare for a Korean lunar orbiter mission, a precise lunar orbit propagator; Yonsei precise lunar orbit propagator (YSPLOP) is developed. In the propagator, accelerations due to the Moon’s non-spherical gravity, the point masses of the Earth, Moon,

Emission Modes in Electrospray Thrusters Operating with High Conductivity Ionic Liquids
Electrospray thruster life and mission performance are strongly influenced by grid impingement, the extent of which can be correlated with emission modes that occur at steady-state extraction voltages, and thruster command transients.

Estimating mean lifetime [PDF]
The life expectancy implied by current age-specific mortality rates is calculated with life table methods that are among the oldest and most fundamental tools of demography. We demonstrate that these conventional estimates of period life expectancy are affected by an undesirable “tempo effect.” The tempo effect is positive when the mean age at death is

This paper contrasts consumer choice under uncertain lifetimes with the behavior that would arise if each individual's lifetime were announced at birth. In a model that includes life insurance and excludes investments in human capital, the expected utility under uncertain lifetimes exceeds that under known lifetimes when the latter expectation is based

Lifetime costs and lifetime net public expenditures of smoking [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundCurrent estimates of lifetime costs of smoking are largely based on model analyses using etiologic fractions for a variety of diseases or Markov chain models. Direct estimation studies based on individual data for health costs by smoking status over a lifetime are non-existent.MethodsWe estimated lifetime costs in a societal ...

Overlapping Length and Lifetime Influence on Load of Simple Over-lapped Adhesive Bond [PDF]
A production process is various in single industrial branches; it usually has one common element – bonding pieces of material. We can say on the base of the production sphere analysis that simple overlapped adhesive bonds are the most common adhesive ...

Data Transmission Reduction in Wireless Sensor Network for Spatial Event Detection
Wireless sensor networks have found many applications in detecting events such as security threats, natural hazards, or technical malfunctions. An essential requirement for event detection systems is the long lifetime of battery-powered sensor nodes ...

Abstract We present the final results on the D-meson liftime measurements obtained by the NA27 experiment. From a sample of 145 D 0 D 0 and 149 D ± decays, we have measured τ (D 0 )=(4.6 +0.6 −0.5 )×10 −13 s, τ (D ± )=(11.2 +1.4 −1.1 )×10 −13 s, with a ratio R= τ( D ± ) τ( D 0 ) =2.4±0.4 .
