Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A systems engineering team used an innovative process to develop a new frictionless air bearing satellite simulator, SIMSAT II, for AFIT. AFIT faculty provided the design team with initial requirements, including rotating 30 rpm for spin stabilization and a rapid slewing capability about the yaw axis of +/- 45 degrees in 15 seconds from a standing start to a standing stop. The design team developed the Project Vee process model to meet these requirements by combining key system engineering principles of the original Vee model with project management tenets. The Project Vee model decomposed the requirements to produce a complete system design, guided the procurement of components, and performed validation and verification of the system. The design effort resulted in a three-axis, tabletop spherical air bearing configuration. SIMSAT II incorporates the use of fans as an actuating device for rapid slewing capability, a rigid structure for greater stability, and the capability for longer experimental runs. A modular payload platform allows for numerous types of experiments to be conducted onboard the system. SIMSAT II provides AFIT with a new simulator for spacecraft dynamics and control, with both educational and research experimentation possibilities.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A spacecraft is built once, launched once, and then trusted to work for years in a place no technician can ever reach; which is why every gram, every watt, and every decision has to be right before it leaves the ground.Many engineers and students master individual subjects (orbits, control, electronics, heat transfer) only to find that real spacecraft work lives in the connections between them. Theory texts treat topics in isolation, and parts catalogs say little about how a choice in one subsystem drives mass, power, and risk across the whole vehicle. What is missing is the systems view: how to size a subsystem, budget the resources it consumes, trade it against alternatives, and prove it will survive launch and space.This handbook was written to close that gap. It treats the spacecraft as a single integrated system and follows a mission in its natural order; from the environment and orbit that drive the design, through every major subsystem, to assembly, test, and operations. Each chapter builds from fundamentals to practical use, showing the working habits of the discipline: budgets that must close, margins that protect a design, and trade studies that turn opinion into numbers.Inside this handbook you will: - Understand how one subsystem decision ripples through mass, power, thermal, and reliability across the vehicle- Build and read the technical budgets; mass, power, link, and pointing; that decide whether a design is possible- Size propulsion, attitude control, power, thermal, communications, and data handling from real mission needs- Trace requirements from mission objectives down to hardware, and verify them with evidence- Plan verification and testing, and read a design across the operating modes where conflicts appear- Keep a consistent framework, notation, and reference data close at hand during real projectsIt is written for advanced engineering students entering the field and for practicing engineers, specialists, and technical managers who need a dependable working reference; anyone who must not only understand a subsystem but size it, integrate it, and defend it in a review.GRAB A COPY of this handbook and begin building the systems-level understanding needed to design, verify, and operate a modern spacecraft with greater clarity and confidence.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Most aerospace courses teach aerodynamics, structures, propulsion, and orbital mechanics as separate subjects - and leave students to connect them alone.If you have worked through separate courses in fluid mechanics, propulsion, and astrodynamics, you have probably noticed the seams. One text treats wings in depth but skips rockets; another derives orbital transfers but assumes you already understand compressible flow; a third covers structures as an afterthought. The result is a set of methods that never quite fits together - and a nagging sense that the same physics keeps reappearing under different names.This textbook was built to close those gaps. It presents aerospace engineering as one connected discipline, building from the atmosphere upward: the physical environment first, then the fluid mechanics that turn atmospheric properties into forces, then the propulsion that generates thrust, the structures that carry loads, and the spacecraft systems that operate where the atmosphere ends.Inside, you will: - Follow every major result from first principles, with each derivation shown step by step. - See the recurring logic across topics - why a rocket nozzle and a subsonic diffuser obey the same area-velocity relation. - Work through fully solved examples with units tracked at every stage. - Test yourself with end-of-chapter practice problems, each supported by complete answers. - Move confidently between SI and US customary units, both given where practice expects them. - Use appendices of constants, atmosphere tables, airfoil data, and material properties as a standing reference.Coverage spans the standard atmosphere and flight regimes; fluid mechanics and subsonic, finite-wing, and compressible aerodynamics; aircraft performance, stability, and control; air-breathing and rocket propulsion; aerospace structures and structural design; aircraft sizing; two-body orbital mechanics; orbital maneuvers and mission design; spacecraft systems; and re-entry and hypersonic flight.It is written for upper-division undergraduates in aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering students taking aerospace options, and early-career engineers who want a single quantitative reference from atmospheric flight through orbital operations. A background in calculus through ordinary differential equations, physics, statics, and introductory thermodynamics is assumed.Bring the whole discipline together in one volume. Add this comprehensive guide to your shelf and start building a connected understanding of flight, from the runway to orbit.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A spacecraft can have an excellent propulsion system, sufficient electrical power, and a carefully designed thermal system-and still become a poor spacecraft if those systems cannot work together.Space engineering is an exercise in compromise. Every kilogram, watt, degree of temperature, orbit choice, interface, and mission requirement can influence decisions somewhere else in the vehicle.Space Systems Engineering Textbook 2026 is built around that reality.This 520-page textbook takes readers beyond the idea of spacecraft as collections of separate subsystems and develops a more integrated understanding of how missions are conceived, engineered, balanced, and brought toward flight.Aerospace students, aspiring spacecraft engineers, mission analysts, and technical professionals can use the book to examine how orbital requirements influence vehicle design; how propulsion decisions affect mission capability; how power must be generated, stored, and allocated; why thermal conditions become design constraints; and how individual engineering choices must ultimately support one workable spacecraft.The emphasis is on the connections.A propulsion decision is also a mass decision. A power decision may become a thermal decision. An orbital mission can reshape communications, energy, and maneuver requirements. Development choices made early can determine what becomes difficult, expensive, or impossible later.That systems perspective helps readers move from asking 'How does this subsystem work ' to the more important engineering question: 'What does this choice do to the rest of the mission 'The result is a reference suited not only to coursework but also to readers who want a clearer picture of spacecraft development as a multidisciplinary engineering process in which requirements, analysis, subsystems, interfaces, and mission objectives must remain connected.Put Space Systems Engineering Textbook 2026 at the center of your aerospace study and learn to find the tradeoff before the tradeoff finds the mission. …
