Abstract: A rapid path planning (RPP) method that fast generates suboptimal zero propellant maneuver (ZPM) paths was proposed previously, and to further enhance the planning performance, the differential flatness of the model is ...

Abstract: Different from the current studies on the impulsive rendezvous which are mainly normal propellant-optimal or time-optimal designs, the safety-optimal impulsive rendezvous with consideration of practical trajectory uncertainties ...

Abstract: The zero-propellant maneuver (ZPM) is an advanced space station large-angle attitude maneuver technique using control momentum gyroscopes (CMGs), and rapid path planning (RPP) enhances its performance. This paper proposes ...

Abstract: In current real-time hybrid testing (RTHT), command displacement is applied to the experimental substructure and a restoring force is fed back to the integration algorithm at each time step between the numerical and physical ...

Abstract: Nodal demand calibration of a water distribution system (WDS) is a process of adjusting the nodal demand in WDS models to make its predictions consisting with measurements, which is an inversion problem compared to the ...

Abstract: The potential of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) as a micromass sensor is explored. A nonlocal Timoshenko beam carrying a micromass at the free end of the inner tube is used to analyze ...

Abstract: Owing to the manufacturing and assembly error or the fatigue of long-time operation, nonaxisymmetric tip clearance is actually a common phenomenon in compressors. It is also well accepted that tip leakage flow, associated ...
