systems both in the computer science and the control engineering communities. Technical systems nowadays are composed of physical components with mostly continuous dynamics and computerized control systems where the reaction to discrete events plays a major role, implemented in Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), Distributed Control Systems (DCSs) or real-time computer systems. Several practical examples of systems with mixed continuous-discrete dynamics are presented, such as a conveyor belt, an annealing furnace, a membranous filtration process, a titration plant, a diesel engine, robotic arms, a chemical reactor, tank systems, or an aircraft elevator system.  (less)

required between Project Mercury and the Apollo Program. The major objectives assigned to Gemini were: To subject two men and supporting equipment to long duration flights -- a requirement for projected later trips to the moon or deeper space. To effect rendezvous and docking with other orbiting vehicles, and to maneuver the docked vehicles in space, using the propulsion system of the target vehicle for such maneuvers. To perfect methods of reentry and landing the spacecraft at a pre-selected land-landing point. To gain additional information concerning the effects of weightlessness on crew members and to record the physiological reactions of crew members during long duration flights. All of the major objectives were met as well as many other objectives assigned to each mission, with the exception of land landing which was canceled from the Gemini Program in 1964. However, the precision control necessary to achieve the land landing objective was demonstrated. There are 133 documents included in this collection. Some of the titles include: Study Of Gemini-Agena Docking Using A Fixed-Base Simulator Employing A Closed Circuit Television System * An Evaluation Of Gemini Hand Controllers & Instruments For Docking * Analog Simulation Of Gemini-Paraglider Earth Landing System & Ground Control Facility * Analysis & Design Of Space Vehicle Flight Control Systems Volume 16-Abort * Analysis & Design Of Space Vehicle Flight Control Systems Volume 8-Rendezvous & Docking * Analysis Of Baseline & Gemini Flight Gt-7 Eeg Data With Specification Of On-Line Computing Requirements * Analysis Of Brain Wave Records From Gemini Flight Gt-7 By Computations To Be Used On A Thirty-Day Primate Flight * Astronaut & Sys@HE¸Që…ÿ¾Û€  (less)
