  • Integrating Life cycle engineering of Space Systems into the Concurrent Design Process

    Featured EPFL Space Center Seminars
    ZOOM
    Virtual Event

    The application of Life Cycle Engineering (LCE) within the concurrent engineering process presents a viable method for assessing environmental, social and economic impacts of space missions. Despite the importance of this for embedding sustainability principles into spacecraft design, the novelty of the concept within the concurrent engineering process has meant […]

  • Setting the Bar for the Replacement of the Probability of Collision Metric in Conjunction Assessment

    Featured EPFL Space Center Seminars
    ZOOM
    Virtual Event

    Professional statisticians can often see issues with, and propose better solutions for, statistical methods that are used in industry; but such proposals often remain unimplemented (and therefore unused) because they are not fully sensitive to the particulars of the application.  The Probability of Collision, a metric used by astrodynamicists to […]

  • Sustainable Space Hub Coffee

    Featured Sustainable Space Hub Coffee
    EPFL PPB 019

    After a successful first event in March, we are organising a second sustainable space hub coffee! We will have the opportunity to hear a summary of the PhD that Alexandre Looten recently obtained at LPAC, on the atmospheric re-entry of composite materials and design for demise of spacecrafts. D4D brings […]

  • Space-Based Solar Power, the Moon and Switzerland – A Case Study

    Featured EPFL Space Center Seminars
    ZOOM
    Virtual Event

    To address the energy and climate crises, renewed interest in Space-Based Solar Power (SBSP) is being actively pursued in Europe, USA, Japan, South Korea, and China. The European Space Agency launched its SOLARIS programme in November 2022 to further investigate and mature the feasibility of SBSP through a technology R&D […]

  • Product safety management in high-tech industry projects

    Featured EPFL Space Center Seminars
    ZOOM +1 more
    Hybrid Event

    In the context of industrial project, along with quality and industrialisation, the product safety is essential to ensure a control over the project cost and schedule and guaranty the delivery of a product with the level of reliability expected. We propose to explain what a safety analysis is and why […]
