Dual-arm space robots are more capable of implementing complex space tasks compared with single arm space robots. However, the dynamic coupling between the arms and the base will have a serious impact on the spacecraft attitude and the hand motion of each arm. Instead of considering one arm as the mission arm and the other as the balance arm, in this work two arms of the space robot perform as mission arms aimed at accomplishing secure capture of a floating target. 1, record 1, English, - dual%2Darm%20space%20robot

Principles of gyroscopic action.... Dynamic stability. When the cone sits on its base on a flat surface and is tipped slightly, it returns to its original position when the tipping force is removed. This is said to be a statically stable position. If the cone is turned over, it may momentarily be possible to balance it on its pointed end, but the slightest tipping force will make it fall on its side. The latter position is said to be statically unstable. 1, record 4, English, - statically%20unstable%20position

Infrastructure Canada. The tools of the Building Canada plan include a number of flexible initiatives and targeted programs that balance regional needs with national priorities. Sustained base funding will allow governments to plan for the longer-term and provide flexibility, while distributed program and nationally-targeted funding balance national, regional and local infrastructure priorities. The Building Canada plan also includes three new national infrastructure programs. The Gateways and Border Crossings Fund and the Public Private Partnerships Fund(P3 Fund) are targeted investment programs, focused on addressing specific national priorities. The third new program, the Building Canada Fund, is the new flagship infrastructure program of the Government of Canada. It complements the other funding programs by providing a balanced response to addressing local and regional infrastructure needs, while always advancing national priorities that are important to all Canadians. 1, record 6, English, - Building%20Canada%20plan

Un financement de base soutenu permettra aux gouvernements de planifier à plus long terme et leur donnera de la flexibilité, alors que le financement ciblé à l'échelle nationale et réparti entre les programmes permettra d'équilibrer les priorités nationales, régionales et locales en matière d'infrastructure. Le plan Chantiers Canada inclut également trois nouveaux programmes nationaux d'infrastructure. Le Fonds pour les portes d'entrée et les passages frontaliers et le Fonds des partenariats publics-privés sont des programmes d'investissement ciblés, visant des priorités nationales spécifiques. Le troisième programme, le Fonds Chantiers Canada, est le nouveau programme d'infrastructure vedette du gouvernement du Canada.

equilibrium : state of balance. When a body or a system is in equilibrium, there is no net tendency to change. In mechanics, equilibrium has to do with the forces acting on a body.... However, a state of equilibrium does not mean that no forces act on the body, but only that the forces are balanced.... The stability of a body is a measure of its ability to return to a position of equilibrium after being disturbed. It depends on the shape of the body and the location of its center of gravity... A body with a large flat base and a low center of gravity will be very stable, returning quickly to its position of equilibrium after being tipped. However, a body with a small base and high center of gravity will tend to topple if tipped and is thus less stable than the first body. A body balanced precariously on a point is in unstable equilibrium. Some bodies, such as a ball or a cone lying on its side, do not return to their original position of equilibrium when pushed, assuming instead a new position of equilibrium; these are said to be in neutral equilibrium. 1, record 8, English, - neutral%20equilibrium

Principles of gyroscopic action.... Dynamic stability. When the cone sits on its base on a flat surface and is tipped slightly, it returns to its original position when the tipping force is removed. This is said to be a statically stable position. If the cone is turned over, it may momentarily be possible to balance it on its pointed end, but the slightest tipping force will make it fall on its side. The latter position is said to be statically unstable. 2, record 16, English, - statically%20stable%20position

The aim of this section is to calculate the torques which have to be generated in the leg joints to hold the leg in a statically stable position. Dynamic forces will not be taken into consideration, since all movements of the robot are slow. First, the torques will be calculated as functions of the leg geometry, position, and the weight to be supported by the leg. Afterwards, these general expressions will be evaluated for a real robot leg. 3, record 16, English, - statically%20stable%20position
