We present a dynamical model of a single catalytic fixed bed in a quench-type ammonia reactor. This model consists of thermodynamics, kinetics, pressure loss, and mass and energy balances, which upon spatial discretisation results in a set of differential-algebraic equations. Compared to similar models in the literature, the main novelties in the model are: 1) a rigorous thermodynamic model using a thermodynamic software library; and 2) a correlation between the gas velocity and the pressure gradient throughout the bed, i.e. the pressure loss is included in the model and used to compute the gas velocity. We investigate steady state solutions and dynamical simulations to understand the behaviour of the single catalytic fixed bed. We determine the optimal steady state operational area and inverse response dynamics are observed. The model can be used to develop model-based control, which is relevant for dynamic and flexible operation of ammonia reactors in a Power-to-Ammonia plant.

Aiming at the navigation problem of unmanned vehicles in extreme environments such as communication interference and limited GPS signals, this study proposes an autonomous navigation method based on binocular cameras. The method enables the unmanned vehicle to complete the task of localization and map building using only binocular images, without the need for other sensors or signal sources. Meanwhile, this study also proposes a local path planning obstacle avoidance method based on depth map, which, when combined with global localization information, can take into account both local obstacle avoidance and global path navigation, and can cope with random environmental changes. The system uses a single sensor for autonomous obstacle avoidance and navigation, which reduces the computational requirements and ensures the low cost of the navigation system. In order to verify the reliability and effectiveness of the system under signal-constrained conditions, the system is evaluated in a simulation environment and a real field scenario, respectively. The experimental results show that the system is able to achieve reliable localization and path planning under signal-constrained conditions.

Despite the drug approval process consists of extremely rigorous clinical and preclinical studies, not all side effects are identified before its marketing, posing a significant risk to public health. Furthermore, considering the huge use of economic and human resources, in-silico predictive approaches for the identification of side effects are essential. In this study, we introduce a new method based on random walk with restart algorithm to delineate previously unidentified links between drugs and side effects, and we apply it on the drug-induced Asthma and long QT syndrome. We identified the genes potentially involved in the development of the analyzed side effect by comparing side-effect-related drugs with drugs not known to induce side effects. Analyzing the sets of genes most likely influenced by the perturbation of each individual drug, we observed that, on average, side-effect-related drugs perturb a higher percentage of genes involved in the development of side effects compared to side-effect-unrelated drugs. Based on this finding, we developed a classifier to explore all possible unknown associations between drugs and side effects. This method can be extended to the analysis of other side effects as well.

NASA has titled its 2020 thrust for the Moon, Artemis. The increased focus on the Moon as a destination for future human and robotic expeditions necessitates general purpose navigational and communications infrastructure reducing their complexity to help establish a sustained presence. A framework through which Lunar missions can relay communications and localize their positions shifts the burden from the individual mission and enables resource allocation tailored to mission-specific goals. During the summer of 2020, student interns under the Innovation to Flight (i2F) program at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration s (NASA) Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in collaboration with the University of Colorado Boulder designed, built, and tested a prototype framework capable of providing surface assets with communication and positioning services. The team utilized the existing i2F CubeSat bus in addition to developing several CubeSat engineering development units (EDUs), a ground vehicle, and a ground station to simulate a scenario in which a lunar surface mission is supported by these services. A primary goal of the summer was to develop a method for localizing the ground vehicle through trilateration. Distances are inferred from the round-Trip time of flight (ToF) of radio signals between an asset and several elements. Signals were sent and received using LimeSDR software defined radios on-board both the ground vehicle and the EDUs;ToF and trilateration were calculated on a Qualcomm Snapdragon development board located within the LA MOON payload data system. The ModalAI chipset on the Qualcomm was instrumental in executing visual based position estimation. Communications was facilitated through a bent-pipe approach addressing the NASA requirement to provide solutions for in communication denied locations. The ground vehicle relayed information to other surface assets in addition to its ground station through the supporting constellation. This project demons
