Flight hardware development for a space-based robotic assembly and servicing testbed
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Robotic assembly and servicing missions in space are becoming increasingly attractive for their potential to expand space capabilities and save money. Future missions may construct large systems on-orbit, service existing ... -
A flight software development and simulation framework for advanced space systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)Distributed terrestrial computer systems employ middleware software to provide communications abstractions and reduce software interface complexity. Embedded applications are adopting the same approaches, but must make ... -
FlightCrew Browser : a safe browser for drivers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Drivers have information needs they want to solve while driving, but current mobile browser interfaces can bring forth safety issues when users browse the web even though their attention is required elsewhere, as it is ... -
FlightMARL: A Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning Framework for Vision-Based Control of Autonomous Quadrotors
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-02)In this paper, we present FlightMARL, an extension of the Flightmare simulator that implements a modular multi-agent reinforcement learning engine capable of supporting an array of models and algorithms. We explore ... -
Flights of love
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1983) -
Flip chip attachment methods : a methodology for evaluating the effects of supplier process variation and supplier relationships on product reliability
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998) -
Floating coil position detection system for the Levitated Dipole Experiment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The Levitated Dipole Experiment (LDX) is a joint Columbia University/MIT research collaboration sited at MIT's Plasma Science and Fusion Center. LDX is investigating the physics of a plasma confined in a dipole magnetic ... -
Floating infrastructures : architecture beyond borders : united points
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)A border could be a physical obstacle but beyond it physicality-it could also impact culture, politics, economic and environment. Our issues that we are facing today and in the near future requires us to draw a new non ... -
The floating marketplace of San Juan Bay
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)This thesis seeks to establish the marketplace as a temporal and spatial event that affects a city in a meaningful way. The marketplace was the site of greatest congestion, activity and drama in many cities, often combining ... -
Floating offshore wind farms : demand planning & logistical challenges of electricity generation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Floating offshore wind farms are likely to become the next paradigm in electricity generation from wind energy mainly because of the near constant high wind speeds in an offshore environment as opposed to the erratic wind ... -
Floating point multiply/add unit for the M-machine node processor
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996) -
Floating shelter
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1978) -
Floating Treatment Island configuration for optimum nutrient removal
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Floating Treatment Islands (FTIs) have been studied as a method to mitigate the risks associated with high nutrient levels in contaminated water. The goal of this project was to compare fractional treatment rates by a ... -
Floating-point unit (FPU) designs with nano-electromechanical (NEM) relays
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Nano-electromechanical (NEM) relays are an alternative to CMOS transistors as the fabric of digital circuits. Circuits with NEM relays offer energy-efficiency benefits over CMOS since they have zero leakage power and are ... -
Floer cohomology in the mirror of the projective plane and a binodal cubic curve
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)We construct a family of Lagrangian submanifolds in the Landau-Ginzburg mirror to the projective plane equipped with a binodal cubic curve as anticanonical divisor. These objects correspond under mirror symmetry to the ... -
Flooded with Possibilities: Analyzing Flood Insurance as a Catalyst for Development in Southeast Florida
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-09)Florida stands as one of the most critical residential markets in the United States, with residential sales reaching an impressive $468.5 billion and real estate residential investment amounting to $6.8 billion in 2022. ... -
Flooding limits in a simulated nuclear reactor hot leg
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1980) -
Floor entry task prioritization for highly automated fulfillment centers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)As automation continues to gain prevalence within the retail industry, informed decision-making by users of robotic systems is critical for management of throughput and operating expenditures. On robotic fulfillment floors, ... -
Floor health predictive support for highly automated distribution centers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)While automated mobile inventory systems have greatly increased productivity, it has also created a new set of operational challenges. Floor health events, such as fallen product, spills, disabled robots, and floor access ... -
Floor-supply displacement ventilation system
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)Research on indoor environments has received more attention recently because reports of symptoms and other health complaints related to indoor environments have been increasing. Heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning ...
