A Compilation of Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessel Research (2015–2021)

This document presents the results of a series of studies performed to develop data-driven rupture limit equations and ballistic limit equations for composite overwrapped pressure vessels. These equations can be used to differentiate between impact conditions that would result in only a small hole or crack from those that would cause catastrophic tank failure. This information would be useful in selecting tank materials to avoid catastrophic tank failure in the event of a perforating on-orbit micrometeoroid or orbital debris particle impact.

International VLBI Service for Geodesy and Astrometry 2021+2022 Biennial Report

Since its creation in 1999, the International VLBI Service for Geodesy and Astrometry (IVS) has documented its progress and current status in the form of annual or biennial reports. The first sixteen years were recorded in the form of annual reports. Starting in 2015/2016 the cadence was changed to two years; hence, this Biennial Report marks eight years of using the two-yearly reporting scheme. The general structure of the reporting has remained stable over the years: the individual components of the IVS contributed short reports describing their numerous activities, progress, and future plans. Without the continued input from the VLBI groups of the international geodetic and astrometric community, this publication could not be compiled and the IVS itself would not be able to flourish. So, once again many thanks to all IVS components who contributed to this Biennial Report
