Where any part of this thesis has previously been submitted for a degree or any other qualification, this has been clearly stated. Where I have consulted the published work of others, this is always clearly at- tributed. Where I have quoted from the work of others, the source is always given. With the exception of such quotations, this thesis is entirely my own work. I have acknowledged all main sources of help. Signed: Date: 15.10.2014 i Abstract Docking mechanism of two spacecraft is considered as one of the main challenging as- pects of an on-orbit servicing mission. This thesis presents the modeling, analysis and software simulation of one of the docking mechanisms called "probe and drogue". The aim of this thesis is to model the docking mechanism, simulate the docking process and use the results as a reference for the Hardware-In-the-Loop simulation (HIL) of the docking mechanism, in order to verify and validate it. -

www.newspaceinternational.com NewSpace International - May/June 2019 1 2 NewSpace International - May/June 2019 www.newspaceinternational.com #EDITOR #ROBOTS #LEARNING #MACHINES Dr Amy Saunders Editor Technology is coming on in leaps and bounds right now, and the world is transforming into an entirely new place right before our eyes. Today’s advances in robotics are astounding – and we can fully expect to see robotic digital assistants playing a role within the satellite sector within the years to come – but what’s equally fascinating is the way that humans respond to these robots. Many of us will have seen the 2004 movie ‘I, Robot,’ in which protagonist Will Smith is inherently distrustful of robots after one rescued him from drowning over his son (due to relative probabilities of survival), leading to the death of a small child. The film brought certain key issues in the field of psychology and robotics to the forefront of our imaginations that have since been addressed in numerous experiments and studies. A recent experiment published in the PLOS ONE journal has shown that people are susceptible to social cues even when those cues come from robots, rather than other humans. Some 89 volunteers were recruited to complete tasks with the help of a small humanoid robot called Nao. The volunteers were informed that the tasks – which involved answering a series of either/or questions such as ‘Do you prefer pasta or pizza?’ were designed to enhance Nao’s learning algorithms. However, the real test came at the end of the study, when the volunteers were asked to turn off Nao. -

This marks the fifth year in a row costs of over $250 million. NASA plans that cumulative cost and schedule performance deteriorated (see figure). The to invest at least $69 billion in its major cumulative cost growth is currently $9.6 billion, driven by nine projects; however, projects to continue exploring Earth $7.1 billion of this cost growth stems from two projects—the James Webb Space and the solar system. Telescope and the Space Launch System. These two projects account for about Congressional conferees included a half of the cumulative schedule delays. The portfolio also continues to grow, with provision for GAO to prepare status more projects expected to reach development in the next year. reports on selected large-scale NASA programs, projects, and activities. This Cumulative Cost and Schedule Performance for NASA’s Major Projects in Development is GAO’s 13th annual assessment. This report assesses (1) the cost and schedule performance of NASA’s major projects, including the effects of COVID-19; and (2) the development and maturity of technologies and progress in achieving design stability. -
