van Woerkom, P.T.L.M. (author), Guelman, M. (author)Four well-known formalisms for mathematical modelling of the dynamics of a spacecraft/manipulator system are derived from the unifying d'Alembert principle. The Newton-Euler formalism is discussed in more detail, as it allows efficient numerical simulation. An algorithm is defined for the control of the manipulator end-effector motion in...report 1987

Pronk, C.N.A. (author), Ersü, E. (author), Lippay, A.L. (author), Elfving, A. (author)Recently, the European Space Agency (ESA) initiated two studies to define a simulation facility for space operations involving space manipulators and other in-orbit servicing and assembly systems. This European Robotic Operations Simulator (EUROSIM) will play an important role during system development as well as prior and parallel to...report 1987

van Woerkom, P.T.L.M. (author)For the simulation of rigid spacecraft manipulator dynamics there exists efficient recursive software. Extension of this software for the simulation of flexible spacecraft-manipulator dynamics would have important advantages. In this paper the method of Equivalent Flexibility Modelling (EFM) is outlined. Each flexible body is re-modelled as a...report 1989

Prins, J.J.M. (author), Dieleman, P. (author), de Jong, H. (author)The Hermes manipulation system (HERA) is a sophisticated space manipulator system, which has to perform tasks ranging from berthing to tool operation in various operational modes from fully automatic to purely manual. The HERA system main contractor is Fokker Space & Systems B.V. (FSS). Development and qualification of such a space-based...report 1989

Liu, P. (author)This paper presents the more salient results of an experimental and numerical study on jack-up dynamic behavior. The laboratory studies of three principle jack-up platform models were carried out in both regular and irregular waves. The data from irregular wave tests were analyzed in both the probability domain and frequency domain supported by...journal article 1991

Metrikine, A.V. (author), Wolfert, A.F.M. (author), Vrouwenvelder, A.C.W.M. (author)Steady-state vibrations of periodically supported structures under a moving load are analytically investigated. The following three structures are considered: an overhead power line for a train, a long suspended bridge and a railway track. The study is based on the application of so-called 'periodicity condition', which implies that the shape of...journal article 1999

Abdelkarim, A.M.A.M. (author), Vrouwenvelder, A.C.W.M. (author)A straightforward method is presented to calculate the three-dimensional response of layered, elastic half-spaces to a dynamic surface loading. The derivation of the method is performed in the wavenumber-frequency domain. Space-frequency domain results are subsequently obtained through the application of the Fast Fourier Transform. The results...journal article 1999

Furuya, M. (author)Currently, 434 nuclear power plants are in operation worldwide. 21% of them are known as Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs). These BWRs have pumps that cool their reactor cores (the forced circulation BWRs). In the design of new BWRs, ways to cool the core by a natural circulation flow, without pumps, also called natural circulation BWRs, are being...doctoral thesis 2006

Kruglova, O.V. (author)The dynamics and conductivity of the discotic liquid-crystal, hexakis(n-hexylox) triphenylene (HAT6), and charge-transfer complex that it forms with 2,4,7trinitro-9-fluorenone (TNF) are studied using quasielastic neutron-scattering (QENS) and Pulse-Radiolysis Time resolved Conductivity. These two techniques measure the molecular dynamics and...doctoral thesis 2007

Nuttall, A.J.G. (author)Worldwide belt conveyors are used to transport a great variety of bulk solid materials. The desire to carry higher tonnages over longer distances and more diverse routes, while keeping exploitation costs as low as possible, has fuelled many technological advances. An interesting development in the recent past is the distribution of drive power...doctoral thesis 2007
