The use of underwater dynamometry to evaluate two space suits [PDF]
Four Astronauts were instrumented and donned one of three extravehicular activity (EVA) suits: the currently in use shuttle suit (STS), the Mark III (MK3), and the AX5. The STS was used as the comparison suit because of approved status.

Motion Control of Siro: The Silo Cleaning Robot
International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2015 Both the principle of operation and the motion-control system of a suspended robot for surface cleaning in silos are presented in this paper. The mechanical design is a reasonable compromise between basically contradictory factors in the design: the ...

More About N2O-Based Propulsion and Breathable-Gas Systems [PDF]
A concept was evaluated of using nitrous oxide as (1) a monopropellant in thrusters for space suits and spacecraft and (2) a source of breathable gas inside space suits and spacecraft, both by exploiting the controlled decomposition of N2O into N2 and O2.

Impact of Mars sand on dust on the design of space suits and life support equipment: A technology assessment [PDF]
Space suits and life support equipment will come in intimate contact with Martian soil as aerosols, wind blown particles and material thrown up by men and equipment on the Martian surface. For purposes of this discussion the soil is assumed to consist of
