Reentry guidance with extended range capability for low L/D spacecraft
… locations between 2,400 km and 10,000 km downrange of Entry Interface (EI). The Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV) design concept was used as the main test case for this algorithm, but the algorithm is general enough to be extensible to similar vehicle concepts with different vehicle …

Range control during initial phases of supercircular reentries
… therefore, possess the ability to control its range after reentry in order to touch down in the desired recovery area. Recent studies have indicated that considerable ranging capability is available with even low lift-drag ratio vehicles operating wholly within the atmosphere if aerodynamic …

Managing energy and mode transitions in skip entry guidance for lunar return trajectories
… of precisely targeting a vast array of downrange distances. To meet this objective, Draper Laboratory has developed a baseline skip entry guidance algorithm which is a blend of the original Apollo guidance logic and a numeric targeting algorithm, PredGuid, that is used for the skip portion …

Statistical approach to payload capability forecasting for large commercial aircraft operating payload range limited routes
… maximum payload simultaneously. Maximum payload range remains less than maximum range. When an aircraft is operated on a route that may exceed its maximum payload range capability, environmental conditions can vary the payload capability by as much as 20%. An airline’s commercial department needs …

High Efficiency Optimization of LLC Resonant Converter for Wide Load Range
… whole AC/DC front-end converter over a wide load range. Distributed power systems are widely adopted in the telecom and computing applications for the reason of high performance and high reliability. As one of the key building blocks in distributed power systems, DC/DC converters in the front-end …
