Virtual ground systems, which use software-defined infrastructure and cloud computing to control satellites, offer a giant leap forward for space operations. These virtual systems are not tethered ...

Abstract: This paper presents a comparative study of impulsive grounding systems encased in concrete (namely UFER grounding). Several topologies used in transmission and distribution networks as well ...

The team of Iridium Communications and General Dynamics Mission Systems has secured a $491.6 million contract modification from the Space Development Agency to provide ground management and ...

The Rapid Resilient Command and Control program will develop a ground system for constellations that perform dynamic space operations, like the Geosynchronous Space Situational Awareness Program.

For the design of reliable power grounding systems for critical electrical infrastructure, soil resistivity investigation is crucial. However, soil resistivity depends on various geotechnical ...

Proper power grounding systems are necessary for maintaining the safety and reliability of critical electrical subsystem infrastructure, such as substations. Power grounding systems provide a low ...

The North Slope Borough is considering moving the water and sewer system above ground in Utqiagvik and potentially other communities. The borough is designing a pilot project to connect about 27 ...

WASHINGTON — The Space Development Agency (SDA) announced plans to procure a separate ground system in support of its experimental missile defense satellites. The agency will seek to demonstrate ...

Yuma Proving Ground is testing a cutting-edge Modular Turreted Mortar System, or MTMS. According to Kevin Irr, a test officer from the Munitions and Weapons Division, intensive evaluations are ...

Grounding is what proponents call the process of connecting to the earth’s natural electric charge, often by physically touching it or connecting to the grounding system built into most U.S. homes.
