Moon Tycoon Version 2: A 3D Lunar Surface Emulator for Desktops and Virtual Reality

Moon Tycoon Version 2 (V2) enables and encourages in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) technology developers, principal investigators (PI), and managers across the agency to design and visualize various Lunar operations and missions with a high degree of photorealism. Users are completely immersed in the emulated Moon environment, enabling them to gain new knowledge as they explore the Lunar surface. Moon Tycoon V2 will soon be released to the NASA Software Catalog for public distribution, which will allow external partners, academia, and other interested parties from the public domain to take part.

The Advanced Geared Turbofan 30,000 lb f – electrified (AGTF30-e): A Virtual Testbed for Electrified Aircraft Propulsion Research

Electrified Aircraft Propulsion (EAP) is a growing topic of research with the potential to shape the future of commercial air travel. Here, detailed mathematical models serve an essential role in developing understanding and evaluating different technologies and design concepts. The Advanced Geared Turbofan 30,000 lb f – electrified (AGTF30-e) is an open-source software package developed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The AGTF30-e provides a realistic propulsion system model of a conceptual electrified advanced geared turbofan engine suitable for propelling a single-aisle commercial aircraft. Included with the engine model is a controller that provides representative dynamic performance across a full operating envelop. The model is meant to facilitate research studies and promote collaboration. It is envisioned for use in concept exploration studies, technology impact studies, and dynamics and controls studies. The engine model can be run in various modes of operation including boost and power extraction. It also has options for other electrification features and methods for engine shaft and electric machine integration. This paper documents the AGTF30-e and illustrates its use through various simulation scenarios.

Lessons Learned from Running a Virtual Global Workshop

Online conferences simplify planning needs, lower barriers to participation for a global audience, and reduce environmental footprints, but scheduling, pacing, and moderating sessions can be challenging.

Interference Cognizant Network Scheduling

Systems and methods for interference cognizant network scheduling are provided. In certain embodiments, a method of scheduling communications in a network comprises identifying a bin of a global timeline for scheduling an unscheduled virtual link, wherein a bin is a segment of the timeline; identifying a pre-scheduled virtual link in the bin; and determining if the pre-scheduled and unscheduled virtual links share a port. In certain embodiments, if the unscheduled and pre-scheduled virtual links don't share a port, scheduling transmission of the unscheduled virtual link to overlap with the scheduled transmission of the pre-scheduled virtual link; and if the unscheduled and pre-scheduled virtual links share a port: determining a start time delay for the unscheduled virtual link based on the port; and scheduling transmission of the unscheduled virtual link in the bin based on the start time delay to overlap part of the scheduled transmission of the pre-scheduled virtual link.
