TL;DR: Key challenges associated with the understanding of the lower thermosphere, aerodynamic drag, the requirement to provide a meaningful orbital lifetime whilst minimising spacecraft mass and complexity, and atomic oxygen erosion still require further research.

TL;DR: In this paper, a case study was carried out on a satellite project in the Department of Electronic System at Aalborg University in Denmark, by using qualitative methods including interviews and observation, and the findings showed that student motivation is stimulated in multiple ways in a Problem and Project-BasedLearning (PBL) environment, such as formal and informal group discussions, regular supervisor meetings and sharing leadership.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine the learning process in the ICT-based, intercultural and interdisciplinary PBL environment of an international student satellite project and discuss the questions of how to prepare engineering students for the increasing complexity of their professional lives and how to help them acquire skills of collaboration, management and innovation.

TL;DR: In this paper, a distinction was introduced between physical and scattering kernel theory-based gas-surface interaction models, and the most popular models have been selected and reviewed using as discriminating factors relevance with regards to orbital aerodynamics applications and theoretical agreement with gas-beam experimental data.

TL;DR: The main contribution concerns the application of Network Calculus (DNC) principles to the performance analysis of embedded real time systems, where complex data flow graphs prohibit the use of standard scheduling analysis techniques.
