The Influence of J2 on Formation Flying of Micro-Satellites in Low Near Equatorial Orbits

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Information Technology, 2014
Taking into considerations the effect of the Earth’s oblateness parameters, particularly J2, the present work assess such influence on the formation flight of micro satellites in near equatorial low orbits. The modified Clohessy-Wiltshire equations

In Situ Two‐Dimensional Residual Stress Characterization of Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An integrated in situ curvature metrology platform combining speckle‐based curvature optical metrology (SCOM) with multi‐beam optical sensors (MOS) enables spatially resolved two‐dimensional curvature mapping of thick sputtered coatings. The SCOM technique provides excellent agreement with MOS while providing an extended measurable curvature range ...

More Likely Than You Think: Inclination-driving Secular Resonances Are Common in Known Exoplanet Systems

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Multiplanet systems face significant challenges to detection. For example, farther-orbiting planets have a reduced signal-to-noise ratio in radial velocity detection methods, and small mutual inclinations between planets can prevent them from all ...

Upscaling Pulsed Laser Fragmentation in Liquids by Advanced Free‐Flow Setups

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Advanced flow setups providing thin colloid films are introduced to upscale pulsed laser fragmentation in liquids for sustainable nanoparticle synthesis. Their potential is demonstrated by yielding remarkably small ZnO nanoparticles of <7 nm. Numerical simulations complement the study, revealing that the superior performance can be attributed to ...

Micro-Satellite Attitude Determination with Only a Single Horizon Sensor

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
Through using measurement from only a single horizon sensor, this paper presented a quaternion-based 3-axis attitude determination method, which can be implemented on board micro-satellites and applied over a whole orbital period.

Global optimum spacecraft orbit control subject to bounded thrust in presence of nonlinear and random disturbances in a low earth orbit

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, 2012
The primary objective of this work is to develop an effective spacecraft orbit control algorithm suitable for spacecraft orbital maneuver and/or rendezvous. The actual governing equation of a spacecraft orbiting the earth is merely nonlinear. Disturbance

Hydro‐ and Lipophilicity of Molecular‐Size‐Controlled Hydrogel Drug Carriers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We investigate nano‐sized hydrogel drug carriers with tailored hydro‐ and lipophilicity. We design their encapsulation and structure‐forming capabilities and follow them in real time during fabrication using time‐resolved and in situ grazing incidence x‐ray scattering.

Do oblate eyeballs exist? A rare case of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in an elliptical globe

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2019
A patient, being a moderate myope with an axial length of 24.71 mm, presented to us with a fresh rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and marked peripheral chorioretinal degeneration.
