статье рассматривается вопрос об автономном управлении космическими аппаратами (КА) в составе космических систем дистанционного зондирования Земли. Описана аналитическая модель программного движения КА, близкая к реальному движению, которая позволяет разработать и реализовать технологию автономного решения задач управления положением КА в заданной окрестности программного движения. Описаны свойства класса динамически устойчивых орбит. The article deals with the issue of autonomous control of spaceсraft (SC) as part of space Earth observation systems. An analytical model of the SC program motion close to the real motion is described, which allows developing and implementing a technology for autonomous control of the SC position in a given neighborhood of the program motion. Properties of a class of dynamically stable orbits are described.

This paper presents a method of identifying the dynamic characteristics of tyres for non-steady-state conditions on the basis of road measurements on a vehicle. The side force acting on the tyre is presented as a function of not only the slip angle but also the slip angle derivative (i.e. the velocity of the change in the slip angle). Hence, the influence of the manoeuvre dynamics on the tyre characteristics and the difference between the characteristics obtained for steady-state conditions and the characteristics for non-steady-state conditions are shown. Also the results of computer simulations prepared for different types of tyre characteristics are presented in this paper. It is evident from the presented graphs that applying dynamic non-linear tyre characteristics for computer simulations instead of steady-state characteristics enables us to describe the real motion of a vehicle better.


Most systems reliant on advanced technology present a familiar dilemma: the system designer does not know what the customer wants, while the customer does not understand the technology well enough to know what is possible. Although Earth observation satellite systems ought ideally to be designed for all customer needs, this is impossible for several reasons. Not least of these is the difficulty of identifying at the outset all, or even most, of the possible customers. This circumstance makes the creation of Earth observation systems somewhat speculative and imposes particular constraints on the subsystems for processing and use of the data. This paper discusses the technical and institutional aspects of processing and dissemination of data from remote-sensing satellites for the benefit of the user.

The article is focused on a detailed micro-study describing changes in the behaviour of the authors in three months before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study is based on data from Google Location Service. Despite the fact it evaluates only three people and the study cannot be sufficiently representative, it is a unique example of possible data processing at such a level of accuracy. The most significant changes in the behaviour of authors before and during the COVID-19 quarantine are described and interpreted in detail. Another purpose of the article is to point out the possibilities of analytical processing of Google Location while being aware of personal data protection issues. The authors recognize that by visualizing the real motion data, one partially discloses their privacy, but one considers it very valuable to show how detailed data Google collects about the population and how such data can be used effectively.
