An adaptive remeshing procedure for proximity maneuvering spacecraft formations
(2012)
Article
Open AccessWe consider a methodology to optimally obtain reconfigurations of spacecraft formations. It is based on the discretization of the time interval in subintervals (called the mesh) and the obtainment of local solutions on ... -
An investigation into cold weld adhesion for spacecraft repair after a space debris impact using space education based sub-orbital sounding rocket platform
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2022-04-29)
Conference lecture
Open AccessIt has been observed that similar metallic materials, when in contact and undergoing relative displacements, can fuse or weld. In standard atmospheric conditions it is not common but in the space environment the inability ... -
An on-board algorithm implementation on an embedded GPU: A space case study
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference report
Open AccessOn-board processing requirements of future space missions are constantly increasing, calling for new hardware than the traditional ones used in space. Embedded GPUs are an attractive candidate offering both high performance ... -

Confinement of spacecraft swarms in J2-perturbed orbits about the earth
(2014)
Conference report
Open AccessThere have been studies of the reliability of a swarm [3], based on nano-satellites, that give a study for the num- ber of satellites that can be working as a period of time, with good results for a 5-10 anys time ... -
Containment methods for atmospheric re-entry of satellites
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2019-06-27)
Master thesis
Restricted access - author's decisionTo palliate the hazards posed by satellites re-entering the atmosphere, international guidelines have defined a maximum acceptable risk for objects to re-enter uncontrolled. Containment methods attempt to reduce this ... -

De-RISC: the First RISC-V space-grade platform for safety-critical systems
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
Conference report
Open AccessThe increasing needs for performance in the space domain for highly autonomous systems calls for more powerful space MPSoCs and appropriate hypervisors to master them. These platforms must adhere to strict reliability, ... -
Design of a space elevator as an alternative transport to space
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2021-07-13)
Bachelor thesis
Open AccessLa idea del ascensor espacial ha existido durante más de un siglo cuando Konstantin Tsiolkovsky inventó el concepto por primera vez en 1895. Sin embargo, el concepto solo se encuentra en el ámbito de la ciencia ficción, ... -
Designing space elevator as a low-cost transportation to space
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-07-13)
Bachelor thesis
Open AccessLa exploración espacial ayuda a abordar preguntas fundamentales sobre nuestro lugar en el universo y la historia de nuestro sistema solar. Sin embargo, llegar al espacio es muy costoso, ya que se necesitan alrededor de 500 ... -
