SORRY, This event is only in french The AOCS Mechanisms - Equipment department and CNES (National centre for space studies) Materials COMET (“Community of Experts”) are organising a seminar on end-of-study mechanisms R&D presentations and round tables on various subjects. Challenges in the spatialisation of COTS mechanisms Modelling tools: Harmonisation feasibility and new tools Issues linked to the use of new materials and processes Microvibrations and low frequency stresses: New requirements and optimisation of orders   Contact

The CNES Materials COMET (”COMmunities of ExperTs”, former CCT led by the French space agency) proposed with ONERA Toulouse a workshop focused on Atomic Oxygen (ATOX) problematics.

This event was in French The objectives of this workshop was to get an overview of research currently in progress and the possibilities for projects to be implemented, particularly for the CNES R&T 2018 campaign.The topics covered were : The steps remaining to create a TP composite suitable for space applications? radiation resistance? creep? Processes? The TPs used in space and why? To gain a thorough understanding of current research into thermoplastic assembly, the obstacles, solutions ...
