  • M. NELSON
چکیده

This issue contains peer-reviewed papers from a workshop on Closed Ecological Systems: Earth and Space Applications at the 35th COSPAR General Assembly in Paris, France, convened in July 2004. The contributions reflected the wide range of international work in the field, especially Europe, Russia, Japan, and the United States. The papers are arranged according to four main themes: 1) Methods of evaluation and theory of closed ecological systems; 2) Reports from recent experiments in closed ecological system facilities; 3) Bioregenerative technologies to advance degree of closure and cycling; and 4) Laboratory studies of small closed ecological systems.

Definition of General Operator Space and The s-gap Metric for Measuring Robust Stability of Control Systems with Nonlinear Dynamics

In the recent decades, metrics have been introduced as mathematical tools to determine the robust stability of the closed loop control systems. However, the metrics drawback is their limited applications in the closed loop control systems with nonlinear dynamics. As a solution in the literature, applying the metric theories to the linearized models is suggested. In this paper, we show that usin...

Closed Ecological Systems, Space Life Support and Biospherics

This chapter explores the development of a new type of scientific tool – manmade closed ecological systems. These systems have had a number of applications within the past 50 years. They are unique tools for investigating fundamental processes and interactions of ecosystems. They also hold the potentiality for creating life support systems for space exploration and habitation outside of Earth’s...

Solvability of infinite system of nonlinear singular integral equations in the C(Itimes‎ I‎, ‎c) space and modified semi-analytic method to find a closed-form of solution

‎In this article‎, ‎we discuss about solvability of infinite systems of singular integral equations with two variables in the Banach sequence space $C(I times I‎, ‎c)$ by applying measure of noncompactness‎ and Meir-Keeler condensing operators‎. By presenting an example, we have illustrated our results‎. ‎For validity of the results we introduce a modified semi-analytic method in the case of tw...

The legacy of Biosphere 2 for the study of biospherics and closed ecological systems.

The unprecedented challenges of creating Biosphere 2, the world's first laboratory for biospherics, the study of global ecology and long-term closed ecological system dynamics, led to breakthrough developments in many fields, and a deeper understanding of the opportunities and difficulties of material closure. This paper will review accomplishments and challenges, citing some of the key researc...
