This thesis focuses on identifying system performance drivers in order to support the system performance analysis by complementing the traditional high-fidelity Monte-Carlo simulation campaigns analyses. This will be achieved by deriving a robust model of the system, i.e. an adequate linear analytical model of both spacecraft in their environment including parametric uncertainties.
Job Responsibility:
Understanding of the dynamical behaviour of the paired spacecraft of the Next Generation Gravity Mission (NGGM) mission as formation flying spacecraft using a system of nonlinear/linear equations of motion
Familiarisation with the description/ formulation of robust models and probabilistic uncertainties
Derivation and implementation of a robust model for NGGM
Application of derived robust model for robustness and sensitivity analysis of NGGM in science operation
Documentation of the Master's Thesis
Requirements:
Enrolled fulltime student (d/f/m) as Aerospace Engineering Master or similar field of study
Very good knowledge of MATLAB / Simulink
Very good knowledge of dynamics modelling and robust control
Creativity and out-of-the-box thinking
Structured, independent, and proactive way of working
English (fluent) mandatory
