This paper presents a dynamic analysis of a tethered satellite system with a moving mass. A
dynamic model with four degrees of freedom, ie, a two-piece dumbbell model, is established …

In this paper, an ocean compressed air energy storage (OCAES) system is introduced as a
utility-scale energy storage option for electricity generated by wind, ocean currents, tides, and …

This paper analyzes the nonlinear dynamic behavior of a three-body tethered satellite
system undergoing deployment and retrieval, considering a variable orbital radius for the …

We study the attitude dynamics of a single-body spacecraft that is perturbed by the motion of
small oscillating submasses, a small exible appendage constrained to undergo only …

OVER the course of history, the Earth has experienced many impacts of asteroids and comets,
collectively referred to in this paper as near-Earth objects (NEOs). The evidence of these …

A numerical analysis of a quasi-isothermal thermodynamic cycle was undertaken for its
application in an underwater energy storage system. The conceptual basis for the quasi-…

SPACE tethers are long members that connect two or more end bodies in the space environment.
The tether tension force acting on the end bodies influences the dynamics of the entire …

THE evidence of water on Mars has increased interest in Martian exploration. Future missions
will involve the exploration of large areas of the Martian surface, and areas of scientific …

Background A quantitative relationship between increasing upper body weight and both 1)
non-instrumented lumbosacral joint loading and 2) fusion instrumentation reactions is …
