Wrapping up a space engineering workshop season: Our latest studies presented are now available online!

Lately, we had the opportunity to attend two leading conferences in the space engineering community, where we showcased our latest research, grounded in hands-on project experience.

At #ECSSMET, the conference for mechanical engineers, ATG Engineering presented two studies highlighting our recent work on two different projects.

📄 STOP Analysis for the CLIM Instrument: Application and Lessons Learned

This paper explains the STOP verification process with a focus on thermo-elastic classification methods, thermal control system optimization, and key takeaways from applying European guidelines for thermo-elastic verification in the CLIM project. Read the paper here.

📄 Application of the Mass Operator Method to Estimate Interface Forces in Vibration Testing

The paper highlights the use of the mass operator method to estimate interface forces in the vibration testing of the ALTIUS Optical Unit, comparing it with other techniques and exploring its practical benefits. Read the paper here.

Following ECSSMET, we attended the ESTEW workshop – a forum for thermal engineers to exchange ideas and brought up a study that explores innovative approaches to thermal testing methodologies.

📄 Thermal Testing & Correlation in the Frequency Domain

The study explores the feasibility of frequency domain thermal testing as a complementary method to standard thermal tests, highlighting its potential for improved accuracy and cost-effective efficiency gains. You can find the presentation here.
