  4. 3. Application of Discrete Time High Order Control Barrier Functions for a prototype multi-spacecraft inspection of the ISS

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Gregorio Marchesini; [2023]
    Keywords : Space Robotics; Control Barrier Functions; Autonomous systems; Multi-agent systems;

    Abstract : In the past few years, the application of Control Barrier Functions (CBF) and High Order Control Barrier Functions (HOCBF) as a suitable framework to ensure safety for autonomous systems has attracted increasing interest. In particular, autonomous space systems are frequently subject to safety-critical constraints due to the high costs involved in manufacturing and launching. READ MORE

  5. 4. Small Satellite Design for High Sensitivity Magnetic Measurements

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Noel Sebastian Janes; [2022]
    Keywords : Magnetic Cleanliness; FORESAIL; CubeSats; High Sensitivity Magnetic Measurements; Small Satellite;

    Abstract : The magnetic cleanliness of a spacecraft during magnetic measurements is an important aspect in the design of many space science missions. The adequate reduction or removal of the spacecraft's magnetic disturbance plays a vital role in allowing the ambient magnetic field to be measured with the required accuracy. READ MORE

  6. 5. Development of Test Methodologies and Setups for Thrust Measurements of Cold Gas Micro-thrusters for CubeSats

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Aleksander Kipiela; [2022]
    Keywords : Thrust measurements; cold gas propulsion; micro thrusters; hanging pendulum; CubeSat; Dragkraftsmätning; kallgasframdrivning; mikrodysor; hängande pendel; CubeSat;

    Abstract : Measuring the thrust of cold gas micro-thrusters, due to the small magnitude of the generated force, is a challenging task, and to obtain satisfying quality of results usually careful adjustments of the setup has to be performed. The work presented in this paper aims at improving the quality of such measurements at the GomSpace Sweden company. READ MORE
