But... (Recent Changes)<br />
• Emphasize project content<br />
– Start 484 project at beginning of 483<br />
– Build teams for spring term in the fall<br />
– Add specific lectures for project specialties<br />
– Provide opportunities for both experimentalists and<br />
theoreticians<br />
• “Design/Build/Test/Evaluate”<br />
– <strong>Space</strong> equivalent to “design/build/fly” for aero side<br />
– Parallels mission-level design activities<br />
– Major system(s) relevant to national programs<br />

Selection of Class Projects<br />
• Criteria - needs to be<br />
– a significant engineering challenge<br />
– of relevance to the current or future space program<br />
– requiring the use of tools from 483 and prior classes<br />
– and of appropriate scope for this class.<br />
• Preferable to be appropriate for entry into design<br />
competitions<br />
• My personal preference is to look at topical issues<br />
and pursue options not currently being considered<br />
in detail by NASA<br />

• Developing Saturn V-class launch vehicle (“<strong>Space</strong><br />

(“Multi-Purpose Crewed Vehicle” or MPCV)<br />
• SLS will cost between $20B and $40B, starting at<br />
70 MT payload and evolving to 130 MT<br />
• No human flights until ~2020; start developing<br />
lunar landing vehicle then - first human lunar<br />

– Investigate sensitivity to specific impulse assumptions<br />
• Revisit lunar architecture with revised vehicle<br />

• Extend architecture to near-Earth objects (NEOs)<br />
and Mars orbit destinations<br />
• Perform trade studies for phased introduction of<br />

Implications of Parametric Resizing<br />
• Reduced OPM performance eliminates singlemodule<br />
lunar ascent option<br />
– Two OPMs landed for ascent with partial fueling in first<br />
stage<br />
– Both OPMs are single failure points for ascent<br />
• Since abort-to-orbit option exists throughout<br />
descent, no change in crew safety for that phase,<br />
but additional risk to mission success<br />
• Introduce option for larger vehicles → assume<br />

Assessment of FH Module Options<br />
• Use of OPM-F for ascent propulsion provides<br />
maximum reliability<br />
• Either of the last two options (all OPM-F or all<br />
OMP-F/LLM-F) provide human lunar surface<br />
missions with six launches, and are acceptable for<br />
lunar exploration program<br />

Future Work<br />
• Better graphics!<br />
• Detailed design of vehicles (crew module, propulsion<br />
modules)<br />
• Perform analysis for forward-staging modules in low<br />
Martian orbit for cargo and human Mars surface access<br />
• Perform reliability and costing analyses for NEO and<br />
Mars cases<br />
• Develop overall program design incorporating phased<br />
development of additional capabilities (Falcon Heavy<br />
modules, LEO staging modules, LOX/LH2 stages) into<br />
active mission model with budget caps<br />
• Consider additional advanced technologies (orbital<br />
depots, aerobraking, reusability) for future missions<br />

Conclusions<br />
• Use of simple existing technologies still provides<br />
early, affordable, repeatable human access to the<br />
lunar surface<br />
• More conservative vehicle estimates support use<br />
of larger launch vehicles if available<br />
• Deep space missions should be staged in LEO<br />
• Long-duration LOX/LH2 stages facilitate NEO<br />
missions and are highly advantageous for Mars<br />
• An evolutionary program concept using on-orbit<br />
staging will provide a robust, ongoing human<br />
exploration program without waiting for the<br />
development of super-heavy lift vehicles<br />

• This material is presented only as point of<br />

– Surface systems design team<br />
• There will also be a program-level systems<br />

Design/Build/Test/Evaluate<br />
• Hardware design, fabrication, and testing will be an<br />
integral part of the 484 capstone project<br />
• A requirement for this term is to figure out what<br />
you’re building next term<br />
• Choice is based on<br />
– Getting design data unobtainable by analysis (e.g.,<br />
human factors evaluation of crew capsule interior)<br />
– Enabling meaningful mission simulations<br />
– Providing value for competitions<br />
• Leveraging facilities and infrastructure of SSL<br />

Akin’s Laws of <strong>Space</strong>craft Design - #16<br />
The previous people who did a similar<br />
analysis did not have a direct pipeline to the<br />
wisdom of the ages. There is therefore no<br />
reason to believe their analysis over yours.<br />
There is especially no reason to present<br />
their analysis as yours.<br />

ENAE 788D Design Project – 2012<br />
• Grad students will form a team for the four design<br />
projects throughout the term<br />
• Grads will also perform systems analyses and<br />
mission design for the same lunar program for the<br />
484 capstone project<br />
• Grads will complete their project and give a final<br />
presentation on their results on the last day of the<br />
term<br />

(de Saint-Exupery's Law of Design) A<br />
designer knows that he has achieved<br />
perfection not when there is nothing<br />
left to add, but when there is nothing<br />
left to take away.<br />

Documentation<br />
• In a group of 42 people, there are 861 possible<br />
communication paths between two people<br />
• Results and decisions you make will inevitably<br />
affect everyone else in the team<br />
• The 484 final report should be a comprehensive<br />
documentation of everything all 42 of you did on<br />
the project over this academic year<br />
• Document! Use archival electronic media (forums<br />
and postings on Blackboard) rather than informal<br />
(chat rooms, texts, e-mails)<br />
• If I can’t see it, you don’t get credit for it<br />

Closing Comments<br />
• Focus on numerical analysis and systems<br />
engineering → this is not “hardware-bashing”<br />
• Look for your own design solutions → this is also<br />
not “catalog shopping”<br />
• Approach everything rigorously with numbers →<br />
this is also also not “adjective engineering”<br />
• Manage scope and risk along with cost, mass, and<br />
other design parameters<br />
• Be innovative, while remaining real<br />
• What you get out of the process is directly<br />
proportional to what you put in<br />
