    Hybrid water immersion simulation of manual IVA performance in weightlessness

    Get PDF
    A description is given of the development, tests, and analysis of a manual simulator. The simulator was developed to test mass handling and translation under weightlessness conditions by a test subject. The system is composed of a hybrid simulator with a combination of water immersion and mechanical, Peter Pan, simulation. The concept operates on the equivalence principle, with the subject and the cargo remaining quasi-stationary. Movement is effected through a moving device controlled through force by the subject. Motion response is determined through computations of the inertial movement under such conditions

    The application of remote sensing to the development and formulation of hydrologic planning models

    Get PDF
    A hydrologic planning model is developed based on remotely sensed inputs. Data from LANDSAT 1 are used to supply the model's quantitative parameters and coefficients. The use of LANDSAT data as information input to all categories of hydrologic models requiring quantitative surface parameters for their effects functioning is also investigated

    Impact of remote sensing upon the planning, management and development of water resources. Summary of computers and computer growth trends for hydrologic modeling and the input of ERTS image data processing load

    Get PDF
    An analysis of current computer usage by major water resources users was made to determine the trends of usage and costs for the principal hydrologic users/models. The laws and empirical relationships governing the growth of the data processing loads were described and applied to project the future data loads. Data loads for ERTS CCT image processing were computed and projected through the 1985 era. The analysis showns significant impact due to the utilization and processing of ERTS CCT's data
