Description Mechanisms Engineer in the Mechanisms Section, Structure and Mechanisms Division, Mechanical Department, Directorate of Technology, Engineering and Quality. The postholder will report to the Head of the Mechanisms Section. Duties The Sections main activities cover the following technical areas space mechanisms such as for deployment and pointing or holddown and release, solar array drives, and reaction wheels, tribology, pyrotechnics, and space mechanical systems for satellites and launchers. Duties will include establishing relevant technology development requirements under the Agencys basic and supporting technology programmes defining, initiating and monitoring appropriate industrial research and development activities providing support to projects, programmes and general studies participating in project reviews and procurement package evaluations identifying critical development problems and assisting in their resolution, as well as assessing mechanisms development and verification test programmes monitoring applicable technological trends and maintaining stateoftheart expertise in the relevant domains pursuing product developments for science and commercial space market applications in the field of space mechanisms fostering new application areas for multidisciplinary mechanical systems, placing emphasis on innovative concepts, cuttingedge technologies and system architectures that can lead to potential breakthroughs in mission capabilities defining relevant infrastructure requirements in terms of testing, standards and numerical simulation contributing to dissemination of the results of the activities performed and the transfer of knowledge across the Agency. Duties may also include supporting other activities within the postholders field of competence. Technical competencies General background and specific experience in the technical domains covered by the position Handson hardware experience Understanding of related technologies, RD trends and the industrial landscape Project support experience in a relevant domain Experience with laboratory or field testing of relevant technical equipment Preparation of procurement activities for technology development and innovation e.g. statements of work, proposal evaluation Experience in the management and monitoring of industrial activities and reviews Space Engineering Standards, preparation and implementation Behavioural competencies Communication Innovation Creativity Teamwork Problem Solving Continuous Learning Education Applicants for this post should have a Masters degree or equivalent qualification in mechanical or aeronautical engineering or a similar field, with several years experience in the development of mechanisms for space or aeronautical applications. Additional requirements Knowledge of space tribology, ball bearings, electrical motors and sensors is required. In addition, experience in one or more of the following fields of expertise will be considered a strong asset Design, analysis and test of control laws for open and closed loop mechanisms driven by electric actuators, including prediction of related microvibrations Verification, through simulation and test, of the pointing performance of mechanisms driven by electric actuators when subjected to spacecraft microvibrations Multibodymultidisciplinary simulations of complex mechanism systems, their kinematics and non linear coupling with flexible structures Electromagnetic device design, modelling and optimisation, with emphasis on electric motors and actuators for space applications.

Ancient viral 'fossils' reveal evolutionary mechanisms

2017-06-29 06:00:00| LifeSciencesWorld

[NEWS] Studying DNA fragments left by ancient viruses in their host's genome has shown even non-autonomous viruses could prosper by helping each other. By analysing ancient viral footprints in the rice genome, Hokkaido University researchers have discovered different virus species infecting the same plant helped each other by exchanging DNA. Many viruses including “pararetroviruses (PRVs)” have the ability to insert their DNA into their host's genome. I…

Producers can maximize xylanase benefits through understanding its mechanisms

2016-09-27 06:00:00| National Hog Farmer

Recent swine trials have shown that xylanase introduction early in the nursery period and fed through to slaughter increases overall pig finisher performance. Pete Wilcock, global technical manager at AB Vista, explains how the response may be potentially associated with three mechanisms in a new video, released by AB Vista. “The first mechanism is the ability to reduce digesta viscosity. The addition of xylanase breaks down the long chain arabinoxylans, which improves nutrient digestibility.” read more
