L'AIRE - Laboratori Aeronàutic i Industrial de Recerca i Estudis
1) Desenvolupar activitats de recerca i transferència de tecnologia i obtenir resultats que aportin un progrés en els àmbits de les enginyeries aeronàutica i industrial. Aquest objectiu es basa en el fet del potencial multidisciplinari que, tant en recursos humans com materials, té l'ETSEIT, així com en el potencial aeronàutic que, com a conseqüència de la impartició de la nova titulació d'Enginyeria Aeronàutica, està assolint. Aquest grup de recerca permetrà alhora que tot el nou personal docent i d'investigació de l'àrea de coneixement d'Enginyeria Aeroespacial que s'incorpori a l'Escola (aquest PDI tindrà adscripció orgànica i funcional a l'Escola) pugui tenir el marc i la infraestructura adequats per a la recerca. 2) Facilitar la recerca al personal docent i d'investigació de l'ETSEIT. L'existència d'aquest grup, dirigit i tutelat per l'Escola, permet que ningú que vulgui estar integrat en un grup de recerca no quedi marginat, ja que es tracta d'un grup obert a tot el PDI de l'ETSEIT. 3) Establir col·labo
The group's aims are the following: 1) To carry out research and technology transfer activities. To achieve results that contribute to the progress of the fields of aeronautical and industrial engineering. These objectives are supported by the multidisciplinary potential, both in terms of human resources and material, of the ETSEIT, as well as the expertise in aeronautics that has been made available by the introduction of the new degree in this field. The research group will ensure that all of the School?s new academic and research staff in the field of aeronautical engineering will have an adequate framework and infrastructure in which to carry out their research. 2) To promote and facilitate the academic and research staff?s work. The group, which is directed and supervised by the School, is open to all staff members who wish to participate. 3) To collaborate with other research groups at the ETSEIT and at UPC in general. The ETSEIT holds a privileged position that enables it to unite forces, particularly

SOAR - Satellite for Orbital Aerodynamics Research
(International Astronautical Federation, 2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policySOAR (Satellite for Orbital Aerodynamics Research) is a CubeSat mission designed to investigate the interaction betweendifferent materials and the atmospheric flow regime in Very Low Earth Orbits (VLEO) and to demonstrate ... -
Advances on the Inductive Plasma Thruster Design for an Atmosphere-Breathing EP System
(International Astronautical Federation, 2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyChallenging space mission scenarios include those in very low Earth orbits, where the atmosphere creates significant drag to the S/C and forces their orbit to an early decay. For drag compensation, propulsion systems are ... -
A Review and Gap Analysis of Exploiting Aerodynamic Forces as a Means to Control Satellite Formation Flight
(2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyUsing several small, unconnected satellites flying in formation rather than a single monolithic satellite has many advantages. As an example, separate optical systems can be combined to function as a single larger (synthetic) ... -
An implicit unsteady hydraulic solver for suspended cuttings transport in managed pressure wells
(Springer, 2019-04)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe present a simulation tool for transient events in complex hydraulic networks. The code includes modelling of the transport of suspended cuttings in near-vertical wells. An unstructured finite volume formulation with ... -
Effects of applied magnetic field on IPG6-S, test-bed for an ABEP-based inductive plasma thruster (IPT)
(Association Aéronautique et Astronautique de France, 2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyAn atmosphere-breathing electric propulsion system (ABEP) captures the residual atmosphere of a planet and uses it as propellant for an electric thruster to counteract the drag. The system would theoretically allow orbiting ... -
Geosynchronous inclined orbits for high-latitude communications
(2017-11-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe present and discuss a solution to the growing demand for satellite telecommunication coverage in the high-latitude geographical regions (beyond 55°N), where the signal from geostationary satellites is limited or ... -
Nonlinear loads model for harmonics flow prediction, using multivariate regression
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017-06)
Article
Open AccessThis paper describes a method for obtaining a model of a single or a set of nonlinear loads (NLL) connected to a certain point of an electrical network. The basic assumption is that the network supplying the NLL has ... -
Fluidic actuator performance variation via internal dimensions modifications
(2017)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyWhen aimed to modify the downstream vortex shedding of a given bluff body, whether any road vehicle or wing profile, the use of Active Flow Control (AFC) appears to be an efficient technology. Among the different (AFC) ... -
Influence of data resolution in nonlinear loads model for harmonics prediction
(2016)
Article
Open AccessThis paper describes the influence of data resolution in the agreement of models to predict harmonics generated by nonlinear loads (NLL), basically formed by single phase and three phase rectifiers, eventually combined ... -
