All‐sky assimilation impacts of the Tomorrow.io microwave sounder constellation on global weather forecasts

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Key Findings: An assimilation methodology is established for the Tomorrow.io microwave sounder (TMS) flying on CubeSats in sun‐synchronous and inclined orbits, and in all cloud scenes. The TMS has a significant impact on weather forecast lead times up to 3 days in the Tropics in a research‐quality numerical weather prediction setting, and yields water ...

4D printing and its key technologies

open access: yesCailiao gongcheng, 2019
4D printing can be defined as the evolution of 3D printing structure in terms of shape, performance and function. It has time dependence, printer independence and predictability, and its smart dynamic performance creates promising capabilities and broad ...

Moisture and wind effects of Rossby waves on Western Pacific Intertropical Convergence Zone breakdown events

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
(a) Organized convection: clouds are clustered at the southern edge of the domain, aligning with the warmest SST. Northeasterly winds prevail, facilitating convection confinement to the southern part of the domain. (b) ITCZ breakdown: the clouds are spread throughout the domain.

A Dual-Prediction Framework for High-Energy Proton Flux Driven by Graph Neural Networks

open access: yesIEEE Access
Predicting high-energy proton flux is essential for radiation-effect protection of satellite devices. We introduce a dual-prediction framework based on Graph Neural Networks (GNN) to model proton flux from both non-time-series and time-series ...

Numerical Study of the Thermal Model on High Uniformity Temperature Test Platform

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
The surface temperature uniformity of a test platform with an effective test area of 600 mm × 600 mm was numerically studied. The conductive heat transfer model for the test platform and the device under test (DUT) installed on the surface was ...

Attitude stabilization of a rigid spacecraft using two momentum wheel actuators [PDF]

open access: yes
It is well known that three momentum wheel actuators can be used to control the attitude of a rigid spacecraft and that arbitrary reorientation maneuvers of the spacecraft can be accomplished using smooth feedback. If failure of one of the momentum wheel

Astronaut hazard during free-flight polar EVA [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Extravehicular Activity (EVA) during Shuttle flights planned for the late 1980's includes several factors which together may constitute an astronaut hazard. Free-flight EVA is planned whereas prior United States Earth orbit EVA has used umbilical tethers

Parking a Spacecraft near an Asteroid Pair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This paper studies the dynamics of a spacecraft moving in the field of a binary asteroid. The asteroid pair is modeled as a rigid body and a sphere moving in a plane, while the spacecraft moves in space under the influence of the gravitational field of

Sliding Mode Control in Aerospace Applications: A Survey

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sliding mode control (SMC) enjoys robustness to matched and unmatched (in the case of minimum phase input‐output dynamics) bounded perturbations, and finite time convergence. Second‐order and higher‐order sliding mode control systems (2‐SMC/HOSMC) retain all the advantages of sliding mode control, but in addition can be applied to systems of ...
