Geometric control theory of micro-satellites Ghent University
This project is concerned with the geometric study of so-called "Control Moment Gyroscopes" (CMGs), which are used for the controle of micro-satellites. Concepts from differential geometry, such as bundles and connections, are used to give a geometric interpretation of the dynamics of CMGs, with particular attention for the existence and analysis of singular states. Using this geometric formalism, a number of control-theoretic questions are ...
HEAT KU Leuven
Project summary
The HEAT project develops advanced cryptographic technologies to process sensitive information in encrypted form, without needing to compromise on the privacy and security of the citizens and organizations that provide the input data.
The core technology is based on homomorphic cryptography, which allows to perform computations on encrypted information without decrypting it. The main goal of HEAT is to produce a ...

Miniaturised Strucutral Monitoring System with Autonomous Readout Micro-Technology andFiber sensor network. Ghent University
In this project, we will develop a smart miniaturized system which integrates optical fiber sensor technology, nano-photonic chip technology and low power wireless technology. The smart system will enable for the first time fully embedded structural health monitoring of composites used as structural parts in e.g. wind turbine blades, satellites, airplanes, civil constructions, oil and gas wells, boat hulls. Due to the innovative approach of ...

High specific impulse vaporizing liquid microthruster using a novel actively controlled heating strategy KU Leuven
Recent advancements in the MEMS technology have allowed for the development of secondary micro-propulsion systems for small satellites. Among them, vaporizing liquid microthrusters (VLMs), are an interesting choice thanks to their simplicity and the advantage in using lighter and smaller propellant tanks. VLMs provide thrust force ranging between 0.1 and 10 mN and have an estimated specific impulse (lsp) above 100 s for water. However, to ...
