The Evolution of Autonomous Systems for Planetary Cave Exploration: A Review
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The exploration of Subsurface Access Points (SAPs), such as lava tubes on the Moon and Mars, has gained significant interest due to their potential as stable environments shielded from surface radiation and temperature extremes. These sites are considered high‐value targets for detecting water and signs of ancient life, and assessing their ...

Clustering of tethered satellite system simulation data by an adaptive neuro-fuzzy algorithm [PDF]
Recent developments in neuro-fuzzy systems indicate that the concepts of adaptive pattern recognition, when used to identify appropriate control actions corresponding to clusters of patterns representing system states in dynamic nonlinear control systems,

A Method for Establishing a Station-Keeping, Stratospheric Platform for Astronomical Research
, 2015 During certain times of the year at middle and low latitudes, winds in the upper stratosphere move in nearly the opposite direction than the wind in the lower stratosphere. Here we present a method for maintaining a high-altitude balloon platform in near

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

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.Nickel foam—one material, two faces, and several versatile roles depending on electrolytic conditions. For more than 50 years, nickel foam electrodes have served in electrosynthesis as powerful and readily available electrode materials. Due to their inexpensive nature and easy handling, they have been widely employed.

Percutaneous Aponeurotomy and Lipofilling in Complex Periorbital Scar Revision
World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Periorbital scars and deformities pose a significant challenge due to the region's delicate anatomy and esthetic importance. This case series explores the application of percutaneous aponeurotomy and lipofilling (PALF) in three patients with complex periorbital scarring resulting from surgical, traumatic, and pathological causes.

Guidebook for analysis of tether applications [PDF]
This guidebook is intended as a tool to facilitate initial analyses of proposed tether applications in space. The guiding philosophy is that a brief analysis of all the common problem areas is far more useful than a detailed study in any one area.
