Skyflower: A Reusable Tethered Lunar Landing System
… This thesis investigates Skyflower, a conceptual reusable lunar landing system specifically designed to address this need. Skyflower reimagines the architecture of planetary cargo delivery by adapting the tethered offloading approach used in the Martian Skycrane. By deploying cargo from a hovering …

Implementing a reusable design pattern Library in C#
… in software systems are described as a universal reusable solution to a commonly recurring problem in software design. Design patterns were, however, not intended to be reusable in terms of code. A symptom of their non-reusability is the problems experienced with the way the implementation of …

Digital material skins : for reversible reusable pressure vessels
… tools but in the materials themselves, to create reusable and recyclable materials. A workflow for digital material skins is also demonstrated, based on existing fabrication tools to rethink the entire lifecycle of functional skins from design to fabrication to disassembly. When a child builds a …

Automated Engineering Design for Reusable Concrete Building Structures
Concrete contributes to 8% of global CO2 emission through reinforced concrete (RC) structural system. Unlike steel and timber structures, RC components are rarely reused due to the inseparable phase between concrete and steel. This results in down cycling of the components into aggregates or …

Parameter dependencies for reusable performance specifications of software components
… languages and transformations, which allow a reusable description of usage profile dependencies in component-based software systems. The thesis includes an experimental evaluation, which shows that predictions based on the newly introduced models can support design decisions.

Automated acquisition and refinement of reusable software design components
The importance of reusing software components in new software developments has long been recognized. A reason for the current low level of software reuse stems from the difficulties of obtaining appropriate components for populating a reuse library.

Revenue management and learning in systems of reusable resources
… guarantees for resource allocation problems with reusable resources and on learning models for personalized resource allocation. First, we address the problem of pricing and assortment optimization for reusable resources under time-homogeneous demand. We demonstrate that a simple randomized policy …

Factors Affecting the Design and Use of Reusable Components
… engineering. A software system developed with reusable components follows a "with" reuse process while a component designed to be reused in other systems follows a "for" reuse process. This dissertation explores the factors affecting design for reuse and design with reusable components through …

Construction and characterization of removable and reusable piezoelectric actuators
… techniques that allowed us to make removable, reusable piezoelectric actuators were shown to provide structural actuation very similar to actuation provided by permanently attached piezoelectric actuators. A small but statistically significant change in authority occurred as a result of …
