Efficient and insightful descriptors for representing molecular and material space

Data-driven approaches have been applied to reduce the cost of accurate computational studies on materials, by using only a small number of expensive reference electronic structure calculations for a representative subset of the materials space, and using ...

Experimental characterization and stochastic models for time-dependent rupture of thin-ply composite laminates

Thin-laminate composites with thicknesses below 200 mu m hold significant promise for future, larger, and lighter deployable structures. This paper presents a study of the time-dependent failure behavior of thin carbon-fiber laminates under bending, focusi ...

RUM: Reconfigurable Umbrella Mesh

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Uday Kusupati, Seiichi Eduardo Suzuki Erazo

We propose Reconfigurable Umbrella Meshes (RUMs), a new class of preassembled deployable structures. A RUM has a compact rest state that can be easily altered to deploy into different bending-active 3D target shapes. RUMs consist of elastic beams and rigid ...

Tether Climbing Robot for Environmental Sampling and Data Collection

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes, Kai Christian Junge, Max Mirko Polzin, Qinghua Guan, Nicolas Mathis Minder

Developing robots that can explore environments without disturbing the natural flora and fauna could allow a safe exploration for both the robot and its surroundings. However, this can involve exploring complex or challenging environments, for example extr ...

Policy options to address collision risk from space debris

Romain Buchs

This IRGC policy brief focuses on the risk of collision from space debris. It provides a range of policy options and broad recommendations to improve the assessment, evaluation and management of collision risk, as well as its communication. It is based on ...

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

Diego Felipe Paez Granados, Chen Yang

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 ...

Intensifying space activity calls for increased scrutiny of risks

Romain Buchs

As the pace of space activities accelerates and societies become more reliant on space-based systems, the associated risks deserve more attention. Satellites form a critical infrastructure on which military, civil and commercial entities rely. The services ...

Network Classifiers Based On Social Learning

Ali H. Sayed, Stefan Vlaski, Virginia Bordignon

This work proposes a new way of combining independently trained classifiers over space and time. Combination over space means that the outputs of spatially distributed classifiers are aggregated. Combination over time means that the classifiers respond to ...

Evaluation and robotic simulation of the glenohumeral joint

Matteo Mancuso

The shoulder is the joint with the largest range of motion in the human body. It is composed of three articulations, the glenohumeral articulation providing about two thirds of its mobility which is, also the most complex and fragile of the three. For this ...
