Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The promise of MEMS for aerospace applications has been germinating for years, and current advances bring the field to the very cusp of fruition. Reliability is chief among the challenges limiting the deployment of MEMS technologies in space, as the requirement of zero failure during the mission is quite stringent for this burgeoning field. MEMS and Microstructures in Aerospace Applications provides all the necessary tools to overcome these obstacles and take MEMS from the lab bench to beyond the exosphere. The book begins with an overview of MEMS development and provides several demonstrations of past and current examples of MEMS in space. From this platform, the discussion builds to fabrication technologies; the effect of space environmental factors on MEMS devices; and micro technologies for space systems, instrumentation, communications, thermal control, guidance navigation and control, and propulsion. Subsequent chapters explore factors common to all of the described systems, such as MEMS packaging, handling and contamination control, material selection for specific applications, reliability practices for design and application, and assurance practices. Edited and contributed by an outstanding team of leading experts from industry, academia, and national laboratories, MEMS and Microstructures in Aerospace Applications illuminates the path toward qualifying and integrating MEMS devices and instruments into future space missions and developing innovative satellite systems.

This book was released on 2006-01-16 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micromanufacturing and Nanotechnology is an emerging technological infrastructure and process that involves manufacturing of products and systems at the micro and nano scale levels. Development of micro and nano scale products and systems are underway due to the reason that they are faster, accurate and less expensive. Moreover, the basic functional units of such systems possesses remarkable mechanical, electronic and chemical properties compared to the macro-scale counterparts. Since this infrastructure has already become the prefered choice for the design and development of next generation products and systems it is now necessary to disseminate the conceptual and practical phenomenological know-how in a broader context. This book incorporates a selection of research and development papers. Its scope is the history and background, underlynig design methodology, application domains and recent developments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper highlights the current state of art of Micro and Nano technologies and also describes the Research and Developments activities going on at EADS-Space transportation with CNES and ESA. A diverse range of MEMS COTS/MOTS (MEMS Commercial off The shelf) are available in the markets that are primarily applicable to Space Transportation vehicles particularly on the Telemetry Sub systems with some specific upgrading activities. For the "End-User" reliability assurance is an integral part of the space qualification process. The testing methods/protocols are also very device dependent EADS-ET has participated with CNES ESA and research labs tor the development of PoF (Physics of Failure) modelling on reliability prediction. In order to apply MNT's (Micro and Nano Technologies) in the space domain (launchers, satellites, probes,) validation of these devices under space launchers environment is essential. Flight opportunities are a key issue since technologies not qualified in-orbit are usually seen as risky and are discarded by the Space Industry. There are some flight opportunities tor MNT in-orbit demonstration with Ariane 5 launchers. For that we propose to develop a recurrent Technology Test Bed (TTB) which could offer standard interfaces with technology experiments. The target in short term (5 years) is the development of Low cost telemetry sub-systems" by using smart MEMS sensors. For that, we started the following works for coming three years (2005-2007): Phase 1: Spatialization (up grading), qualification and adaptation of MEMS COTS tor a flight demonstrator on Ariane 5 launchers environments Phase 2: Realization of test bed to make flight demonstration of MNTs for space transportation use Phase 3: Study of "Low cost telemetry sub-systems" by using smart MEMS sensors.
