Structures 1 - AERO40008
Aims
This module introduces the fundamental concepts for all structural analysis, viz equilibrium, compatibility and the stress/strain law. It illustrates the use of these concepts to solve simple problems, mainly concerning frameworks and beams, and to apply them in tutorials and laboratory practicals.
Role
Lecturer
Spacecraft Structures S4 - MSc AERO70018
Aims
This module presents state-of-the-art methodologies for the design of spacecraft structures, from launchers to satellite platforms and to habitable inflatable modules. The fundamental knowledge provided in this course will involve how hazardous spacecraft-environment interactions can be predicted and mitigated at material and structural level; awareness of design methods and certification requirements for both structures and payloads that can successfully withstand launch and insertion into orbit; and the understanding of the operational principles for deployable structures in space applications and of the relevant design strategies.
