Virtual Landmark-Based Control of Docking Support for Assistive Mobility Devices

This work proposes an autonomous docking control for nonholonomic constrained mobile robots and applies it to an intelligent mobility device or wheelchair for assisting the user in approaching resting furniture such as a chair or a bed. We defined a virtua ...

Vessel scheduling with pilotage and tugging considerations

Michel Bierlaire

This paper considers vessel scheduling with pilotage and tugging constraints in berthing operations with channel restrictions at seaports. To our knowledge, pilotage and tugging requirements have not been simultaneously considered in the literature. This w ...

Vision Based Navigation for Autonomous Cooperative Docking of CubeSats

Volker Gass, Camille Sébastien Pirat

A realistic rendezvous and docking navigation solution applicable to CubeSats is investigated. The scalability analysis of the ESA Autonomous Transfer Vehicle Guidance, Navigation & Control (GNC) performances and the Russian docking system, shows that the ...

Guidance, Navigation and Control for Autonomous Cooperative Docking of CubeSats

Volker Gass, Pierre-Alain Mäusli, Camille Sébastien Pirat

Is it possible to dock CubeSats in Low Earth Orbit? The challenges are mainly associated with the level of miniaturisation. A docking mechanism was designed, built and tested in the laboratory. Results show that a relative precision better than 1 cm and 2 ...

The Gaia mission

Stephan Morgenthaler, Mikaël Martino, Shuangqing Liao, Daniela Werner

Gaia is a cornerstone mission in the science programme of the European Space Agency (ESA). The spacecraft construction was approved in 2006, following a study in which the original interferometric concept was changed to a direct-imaging approach. Both the ...

Antihypertensive drugs metabolism: an update to pharmacokinetic profiles and computational approaches

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Aikaterini Zisaki

Drug discovery and development is a high-risk enterprise that requires significant investments in capital, time and scientific expertise. The studies of xenobiotic metabolism remain as one of the main topics in the research and development of drugs, cosmet ...

Uncooperative Rendezvous and Docking for MicroSats

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Herbert Shea, Volker Gass, Luzius Gregor Kronig, Muriel Richard, Federico Belloni, Oluwaseun Adelowo Araromi, Christophe Dominique Paccolat, Irina Gavrilovich

This paper proposes a solution to perform active debris removal with a cost effective microsatellite. A complex aspect of debris removal in space is the detection and positive identification of the debris, medium to close approach as well as the orbital re ...

Bayesian Rendezvous for Distributed Robotic Systems

Alcherio Martinoli, Sven Adrian Gowal

In this paper, we state, using thorough mathe- matical analysis, sufficient conditions to perform a rendezvous maneuver with a group of differential-wheeled robots endowed with an on-board, noisy, local positioning system. In particular, we extend the exis ...
