Hybrid fuzzy sliding mode control for motorised space tether spin-up when coupled with axial and torsional oscillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A specialised hybrid controller is applied to the control of a motorised space tether spin-up space coupled with an axial and a torsional oscillation phenomenon.

The Maintenance of Orbital States in a Floating Partial Space Elevator Using the Reinforcement Learning Method

open access: yesAerospace
A partial space elevator (PSE) is a multi-body tethered space system in which the main satellite, typically an ultra-large spacecraft or a space station in a higher orbit, is connected to a transport spacecraft in a lower orbit via a tether, maintaining ...

The dynamic phenomena of a tethered satellite: NASA's first Tethered Satellite Mission, TSS-1 [PDF]

open access: yes
The tethered satellite system (TSS) was envisioned as a means of extending a satellite from its base (space shuttle, space station, space platform) into a lower or higher altitude in order to more efficiently acquire data and perform science experiments.

Tethered satellite system [PDF]

open access: yes
A reusable system is to be developed to enable a variety of scientific investigations to be accomplished from the shuttle, considering the use of a tethered system with manual or automated control, deployment of a satellite toward or away from the Earth,

Tethered satellite control mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
The tethered satellite control mechanisms consist of four major subsystems. The reel drive mechanism stores the tether. It is motor driven and includes a level wind to uniformly feed the tether to the reel.

Forcing the Side‐on π‐Coordination of a C≡C Triple Bond to Technetium Using the As,CC,As Alkyne Pincer Ligand 1,2‐Bis(2‐(diisopropylarsaneyl)‐4‐(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)Ethyne

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Technetium alkyne complexes have eluded isolation for decades with the only indicators for their existence being the isolation of vinylidene carbenes or their follow‐up reaction products despite plentiful of reports for neighboring elements. Stable, crystalline Tc(III) and Tc(V) alkyne complexes (and their Re analogs) have now been prepared and fully ...

Functional models from limited data: A parametric and multimodal approach to anatomy and 3D kinematics of feeding in basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Basking sharks, Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus, Brugden [Squalus maximus], Det Kongelige Norske Videnskabers Selskabs Skrifter, 1765, vol. 3, pp. 33–49), feed by gaping their mouths and gill slits, greatly reorienting their cranial skeletons to filter food from water.

Long-Duration Inspection of GNSS-Denied Environments with a Tethered UAV-UGV Marsupial System

open access: yesDrones
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have become essential tools in inspection and emergency response operations due to their high maneuverability and ability to access hard-to-reach areas. However, their limited battery life significantly restricts their use

Aerodynamic calculations related to tethered sub-satellite experiments [PDF]

open access: yes
The results are presented of four aerodynamic studies that were in support of a broader, preliminary inquiry concerning the potential use of downward-deployed tethered sub-satellites for in-flight aerothermodynamic research.
