Abstract
Space mission design represents a complex challenge due to the vast and highly non-linear trade spaces, the complex and interconnected analyses required, and the need to address every mission phase, from procurement to end-of-life, while considering both technical and programmatic considerations. This thesis work was carried out within the Research & Development Unit of the Italian company Argotec and aims at implementing a Concurrent Engineering (CE) framework in a corporate environment to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of mission formulation and design, which is referred to as the Advanced Concepts Laboratory (ACLab ). Unlike traditional sequential approaches, which can lead to late-stage redesigns, missed opportunities, or suboptimal designs, CE promotes teamwork and real-time design sessions, enabling simultaneous progress across all aspects of a space mission.
CE enhances trade space exploration, decision-making, and the concurrent evaluation of all relevant factors, resulting in valuable, feasible, and consistent designs while reducing the overall effort required
