Subject field(s)
  • Orbital Stations

CONT

According to the construction plan of the International Space Station, the Docking Compartment-1 has to be eventually replaced with a much larger Universal Docking Module, UDM. Launched by the Proton rocket, the UDM would provide life-support capabilities for as many as six crewmembers onboard the Russian segment of the ISS. Prior to UDM arrival, the Docking Compartment-1 would be discarded to free the Earth-facing "nadir" port of the Zvezda service module for the UDM. The new Docking Compartment-2, as well as Russia's future science modules, would then be able to dock to multiple ports onboard the UDM.

Subject field(s)
  • Spacecraft
  • Orbital Stations
OBS

The Automated transfer Vehicle(ATV) is the European Transportation system supporting the International Space Station. A detailed analytical cargo accommodation for each single cargo has to be performed in order to meet the NASA plan(Cargo Manifest). From the cargo accommodation point of view, the ATV consists of an unpressurized module and a pressurized module. Accommodation rules are given for the unpressurized, pressurized and overall cargo.

OBS

The ATV becomes an extension of the station. The 45 m³ pressurized module of the ATV delivers up to 7,2 tonnes of equipment, fuel, food, water and air for the crew.

OBS

ATV pressurized module: term officially approved by the International Space Station official approval Group (ISSOAG).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Engins spatiaux
  • Stations orbitales
OBS

Les charges utiles véhiculées par l'ATV se répartissent en deux catégories : celles qui peuvent être exposées au vide spatial et celles qui nécessitent d'être transportées sous atmosphère contrôlée. Dans le premier cas, sa capacité est de 9 tonnes de fret, tandis que dans le second son emport est réduit à 6,7 tonnes. Les charges utiles ne nécessitant pas d'être acheminées dans un module fermé seront montées sur une structure ouverte de type «étagère», comme ce sera le cas pour l'acheminement de réservoirs d'ergols, de gaz ou d'eau.

CONT

Trois configurations de base sont prévues pour l'ATV. Il peut notamment recevoir un mini-module logistique pressurisé (MPLM), une coque porteuse et deux palettes logistiques non pressurisées (ULC), ou un module pressurisé en plus d'une structure porte-réservoir ouverte.

OBS

module pressurisé de l'ATV : terme uniformisé par le Groupe de travail de la terminologie de la Station spatiale internationale (GTTSSI).

English

Subject field(s)

CONT

The programming term "bug" is often used in the literature on intelligent tutoring systems to refer to systematic procedural errors. A tutor can reveal a bug in a procedure by applying the procedure on a problem where it will generate an obviously incorrect ... result....

CONT

Tutoring module is composed of four building blocks such as bug identification, bug causality analysis, plan generator and tutoring strategy. Bug identification. The task of this building block is identifying the bugs in the student's knowledge.
