1. 21. DELIBERATIVE DEMOCRACY AND EDUCATION - in context, in theory and in empirical research

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för pedagogik och specialpedagogik

   Author : Axel Rödström; [2020-08-28]
   Keywords : deliberative democracy; citizenship education; philosophy of education;

   Abstract : This master's thesis problematizes the deliberative citizenship education model from three different perspectives. It contains three substudies, which all investigate how deliberative democracy has been modelled on deliberative criteria for discussions. READ MORE

3. 22. Methods to operate and evaluate the performance of a cold-gas CubeSat propulsion system on a magnetically stabilised satellite

   University essay from KTH/Rymdteknik

   Author : Victor Alberto Gonzalez Marin; [2020]
   Keywords : Propulsion system; CubeSat; Performance; Operating procedure; Mission experiment; Framdrivningssystem; CubeSat; Prestanda; Driftsrutin; Driftprov;

   Abstract : Propulsion systems allow satellites to perform many functionalities in space, such as orbital station keeping, reentry control, attitude control, orbital transferring, rendezvous operation, and even more thrilling, interplanetary travel. Indeed, propulsion systems in satellites have fostered a new favourable era of space exploration and application, therefore, detailed processes to operate propulsion systems need to be developed so that space missions, carrying this valuable system, are completed successfully.

4. 23. Simulation and control toolkit for small satellite projects

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

   Author : Adam Śmiałek; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Spacecraft project management calls for division of project lifetime into phases, with specific goals to be fulfilled at the end of each phase. During first few phases a Preliminary Design Review (PDR) has to be conducted, after which top-level hardware design is not to be changed. READ MORE

5. 24. Simulation of Optical Aberrations for Comet Interceptor’s OPIC Instrument

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

   Author : Maximilian Bührer; [2020]
   Keywords : simulation; camera; lens effects; optical aberrations; optics; ray tracing; sensor noise; coma; astigmatism; chromatic aberration; motion blur; rolling shutter; CMOS; CCD;

   Abstract : In space exploration optical imaging is one of the key measurements conducted, with a vast majority of missions heavily relying on optical data acquisition to examine alien worlds. One such endeavor is ESA’s F-class mission Comet Interceptor, a multi-element spacecraft expected to be launched in 2028. READ MORE

6. 25. Simulation and Study of Gravity Assist Maneuvers

   University essay from KTH/Rymdteknik

   Author : Ignacio Santos; [2020]
   Keywords : B-Plane; Gravity assist maneuver; Interplanetary orbit transfer; Oberth effect; Periapsis; Simulation model; Space exploration; Trajectory planning.;

   Abstract : This thesis takes a closer look at the complex maneuver known as gravity assist, a popular method of interplanetary travel. The maneuver is used to gain or lose momentum by flying by planets, which induces a speed and direction change. READ MORE
