Abstract
In the past decades the tendency to make space available has led to a new world wide
situation, the new space, with the small satellites as their maximum exponent. Inside that
group of satellites, Nanosatellites are the most commonly used among students and, in
the case of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, it is not different.
NanoSat Lab Team, with base in Campus Nord, has believed ever since its creation in
this technology. With the design and development of three nanosatellites, one of which
was put into orbit in 2016, it is the most experienced student team involved in CubeSats
in Catalunya.
The new NanoSat Lab project, 3Cat-4 mission, was selected for the ESA program Fly
Your Satellite! and it is planned to be launched by the end of 2018.
This thesis is set to conduct the works related to the integration of the CAD model of the
satellite and the analysis of the structural behaviour of the satellite during the launch.
Description
The 3-CAT4 is a 1U Cubesat developed by the NanoSat Lab (UPC) to be launched by the European Space Agency in 2019. In this TFG, the structural analysis and tests required by ESA before the launch of the Cubesat will be designed and performed.
