Computer simulated physical characteristics of electrically propelled spacecraft for selecting and designing attitude control system
DIANA, a digital-analog simulation program for IBM 1620 2 computer, simulates physical systems by solving the simultaneous differential equations describing the systems. It expands and optimizes the input-output capabilities, permits additional flexibility in midstream program alternation, and minimizes the computational time.
Analysis and configuration of control system for Mars propulsive lander
Variable duty cycle pulser increases circuit power efficiency by more than 75 percent when operating solenoid valves. The pulser provides a low-level holding current after a high-level current has actuated the solenoid valves.
