Model‐Based Systems Engineering in Space Applications: A Comprehensive Literature Review

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing complexity of space engineering is driving the demand to embrace the adoption of Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Although the MBSE is well‐practiced in the space industry, the level of effort and need required to obtain the benefits of MBSE vastly differ across enterprises; this disparity presents a significant challenge to

Morphological Stability of Au‐Core Nanosatellites

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Chemical rearrangement pathways of gold core‐satellites (GCS) nanostructures. Au core is depicted as a gold sphere and the transition metal (TM) satellites as gray spheres. Colored arrows denote pathways when the transition metal is Rh (red), Pt (green), Pd (blue) at 600 K. Shaded red stands for AuRh at higher temperatures.
