Many tools used for many purposesabouT SPace engineering

Many ToolS

adapted to the development phase

with the proper accuracy level,modelling representativity and numerical quality

specific to the technical domain: control,power, mechanical,thermal,configuration,

orbit, etc

VariouS caTegorieS

In-house: legacy expert software

External commercial like Scilab

Reference tools for the space community like space environment models


Scilab For early PhaSeS

Early phases contextearly PhaSeS aiM aT

understand user needs

find key elements and be creative for work around solutions

assess and prove concepts feasibility and performance

Main characTeriSTicS are

the 10% world, more accuracy not really needed

Innovation-push solutions

based on parametric studies and charts

limited time & resources

mainly supported by orbit analyses



What kind of tools are needed ?Why Scilab ?

expert tools for detailed design not suited

flexible, easy to use, system engineers tools like Scilab do the job ! good compromise in terms of modularity & functions set efficient vector/matrix structure of data graphics friendly links with other languages or tools

free

and because celestlab is existing ! orbital dynamics & geometry Scilab toolbox


An illustration: the CNES "concurrent design "

concluSionS

Obstacles to lift

Many "partitioning barriers" due to program lifecycles, project practices and engineering disciplines breaking the "silos" !

Change in the management of the engineering process move from a discipline-based approach to a system

engineering/model-based development process Boost Scilab awareness and control academic education programs, engineers training exchanges/transfers between education, research and

industry (value of the open source !)
