La trame arborée : un élément pertinent pour articuler paysage et biodiversité dans la politique de la trame verte et bleue aux échelles infrarégionales ? by Éric Maire, Philippe Béringuier, Gérard Briane, Bertrand Desailly, Sylvie Guillerme

“…We shall demonstrate through an example in the Pyrenean Piedmont Ariège region, that there are viable methods for making detailed maps of green corridors by using images from the Pléaides satellites. These knowledge tools have been tested in an interactive workshop which revealed a great variety of representations of the green corridor among local stakeholders.…”

Flexible-Robotic Reflector for Aerospace Applications by Nir Shvalb, Boaz Ben-Moshe, Oded Medina, Raz Itzhaki Tamir

“…In this paper we present a new concept for a dynamic antenna specially designed for communication satellites. The suggested flexible-robotic antenna is based on a dual-reflector structure, where the subreflector has a complex surface shaping robotic mechanism allowing it to fix most of the morphologic errors in the main reflector. …”

Performance Enhancement of Spaceborne Cooler Passive Launch and On-Orbit Vibration Isolation System by Yeon-Hyeok Park, Mun-Shin Jo, Eung-Shik Lee, Hyun-Ung Oh

“…A spaceborne cryogenic cooler induces undesirable microvibration disturbances during its on-orbit operation, which is one of the main sources that degrades the image quality of submeter-level high-resolution observation satellites. Several types of vibration isolation systems based on passive approaches have been developed for reducing the microvibration of the cooler. …”
