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.

This paper describes a family of innovative fixed wing UAS with can vertical take off and land – the SONGBIRD family.

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

The article deals with the transportation operation of a payload delivery from a circular orbit using a space-tethered system. The use of the tether allows transferring the payload capsule to the reentry orbit without using the jet fuel. The whole transport operation can be divided into three stages: braking for the payload exit from the original orbit, flight along the elliptical orbit to the boundary of the atmosphere, and reentry. For braking at the first stage, an extended tether is used. Its length varies according to the swing principle. This principle allows us to swing the space tether

This study theoretically quantified the loss in wood chip production by applying queuing theory and stochastic modelling. As well as the loss in production, the inefficiency was identified as the idling time of chipper and the queuing time of trucks. The aim

Therefore, the system can be utilised whenever the use of full size helicopters is impossible, too expensive or prohibited by law. We focus on the deployment and repairing of
