Abstract:
The forest industry tends to plan, and model transportation costs based on the potential payload benefits of increased legal gross vehicle weight (GVW) by deploying different configurations, while payload benefits of a configuration can be significantly influenced by the vehicle design tare weight. Through this research the relative benefit of increased legal GVW of different configurations is compared across Australia over a 13-year period from 2006 to 2019, by examining data collected post operation across multiple operations. This approach is intended to offer realistic insight to real oper

Abstract:
The problem of increasing the efficiency of transport operations in space is currently coming to the fore. In the context of this problem, we investigated the possibility of developing a space transportation system including a chemical upper stage and an electric propulsion transport module capable of performing a specified range of space maneuvers. Electric propulsion module design was carried out for a given range of target orbits and payload mass with the provision of restrictions on the flight time. Calculation of the ballistic characteristics of the flight is performed and an optimal prog

Abstract:
This paper describes a family of innovative fixed wing UAS with can vertical take off and land – the SONGBIRD family. With nominal payloads starting from 0.5 kg they can take off and land safely like a multi-rotor UAV, removing the need for an airstrip for the critical phases of operation. A specially designed flight controller allows stable flight at every point of the transition phase between VTOL and fixed wing mode. Because of this smooth process with a all time stable flight, very expensive payload like hyperspectral sensors or advanced optical cameras can be used. Due to their design all

AbstractAutonomous exploration requires the use of movable platforms that carry a payload of instruments with a certain level of autonomy and communication with the operators. This is particularly challenging in subsurface environments, which may be more dangerous for human access and where communication with the surface is limited. Subsurface robotic exploration, which has been to date very limited, is interesting not only for science but also for cost-effective industrial exploitation of resources and safety assessments in mines.

Forwarding technology is well established in use around the world but, at the same time, forwarders are expensive machines that require a good planning to ensure the sustainability of operations. In addition, forwarder market is characterized by a limited pool of customers, therefore innovation attempts may be limited compared to other product development industries. Since the steps towards a full automation of operations are still at their beginning, improvements of forwarder machines may rest in developing and integrating components that could contribute to an increased effectiveness.

Many potentially useful applications that broadly fall under the umbrella of payload transportation operations have been proposed for aerial towed-cable (ATC) systems, namely the precise capture and delivery of payloads. There remain outstanding issues concerning the dynamics and control of ATC systems that are inhibiting the near-term demonstration of these applications. The development of simplified representations of ATC systems that retain the important dynamics, yet are simple enough for use in control system development is limited.

Abstract:
Using chemical and nuclear electric propulsion for the exploration of the Martian moons will be investigated. Both oxygen/hydrogen chemical propulsion and nuclear electric propulsion with 500 kilowatt electric (kWe) to 10 megawatt electric (MWe) reactors will be assessed. The initial masses, propellant masses, and trip times for a variety of space vehicle payload masses will be compared. For high energy orbital transfer, the nuclear electric propulsion vehicles required a small fraction of the propellant mass over oxygen/hydrogen orbital transfer vehicles (OTVs). The moons, Phobos and Deimos, may hold resources for refueling future space vehicles. In-situ resource utilization (ISRU) can be a powerful method of reducing Earth dependence on space vehicle propellants, liquid water, and breathing gases. Historical studies have identified the potential of water in carbonaceous chondrites on the moons. The moon-derived propellants OTVs that move payloads between the moons and to other important operational Mars orbits. Also, the propellants have been suggested to support reusable Mars landers. To extract the water, the mined mass, its volume and the mining time were estimated. The water mass fraction may be as low as 2x10−4. Very large masses were needed to be extracted for up to 100 MT of water.

Abstract:
Heavy-payload Power Augmented Ram vehicles represent a new class of amphibious transportation means. In the static and low-speed operational regimes, these machines utilize a skirtless pressurized air cushion generated by front jet propulsors. In the high-speed motion, the aerodynamic lift augmented in ground effect becomes the dominant support. The construction of a small-scale radio-controlled Power Augmented Ram model is described. Results of initial static and self-propelled tests on solid surfaces are presented. Future research work and possible full-scale applications are discussed.

The operating dynamic clearance envelope has historically been a sum of estimated dimensional tolerances, sometimes even called “black magic” [1]. These tolerances exist by design within the car and the track, as well as between the wheel flanges and the rail gage face. Field observations of operating clearance have augmented these estimates. Recently a review of such expectations was desired as related to wide and/or tall payloads, with particular respect to train speed and track roughness.

A new method for sway suppression of boom crane loads is implemented, which is based on the application of appropriate filters on the motion commands. A typical boom crane mechanism is considered, which accomplishes independently the luffing and hoisting motions, needed for load grabbing, transfer and final positioning. The resulting dynamic model of the crane mechanism leads to a strongly non-linear and time varying problem. Property designed Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filters are then applied to the typical motion commands of the system. The resulting filtered motion commands are shown to

Early detection of rail defects is necessary for preventing derailments and costly damage to the train and railway infrastructure. A rail surface flaw can quickly go from a small fracture to a broken rail after only a few train cars have passed over it. Rail defect detection is typically performed by using an instrumented car or a separate railway monitoring vehicle. Such systems can either be costly or time consuming to implement.
