Fault Diagnosis For A Team Of Planetary Rovers

open access: yes, 2022
The aim of this work is to evaluate the use of a combined fault detection and isolation system; first for a single planetary rover, then applied as a centralised health monitor to a small team of coordinated rovers.

Objects of Affection: Deathly Encounters With Taxidermy, Stuffed Toys and Atmospheres

open access: yesChildren &Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores how children and young people relate to death through affective atmospheres and embodied, imaginative encounters with taxidermy and stuffed toy animals. Using arts‐based research (ABR), we explore how death, affective atmospheres, empathy and materiality entangle during multispecies relations.

Visual–LiDAR SLAM for Rover Navigation in Planetary Environments With Plane Constraints and Global Optimization

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Planetary rovers are key remote sensing platforms in space exploration, playing a vital role in scene perception and terrain mapping. The safe operation and data acquisition of rovers depend on precise navigation and localization. However, the absence of

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Self-Directed Cooperative Planetary Rovers

open access: yes, 2003
The project is concerned with the development of decision-theoretic techniques to optimize the scientific return of planetary rovers. Planetary rovers are small unmanned vehicles equipped with cameras and a variety of sensors used for scientific ...

Slip Pridiction Based Path Planning for Planetary Rovers

open access: yes, 2011
Most methods of path planning for planetary rovers were designed for fairly benign terrain and do not account for potential slippage . Though the TANav system addresses slip prediction issue,it does not integrate directional slip prediction into the path

Impacts of weather events on the effectiveness of climate adaptation interventions for threatened species

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change is driving increasingly frequent and severe weather events that can undermine the effectiveness of conservation interventions for threatened species, yet the extent and mechanisms of such impacts remain poorly understood. We assessed both peer‐reviewed and gray literature to determine how climate adaptation interventions have ...

On Advanced Mobility Concepts for Intelligent Planetary Surface Exploration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Surface exploration by wheeled rovers on Earth's Moon (the two Lunokhods) and Mars (Nasa's Sojourner and the two MERs) have been followed since many years already very suc-cessfully, specifically concerning operations over long time.
