thermal analysis and software tools

Today, thermoelastic treatment relies on providing maps of average temperatures by zone. This is a conservative approach because these temperatures gradients are maximized. The main objective is to develop an automated link between mechanical engineering models and thermal analysis ones, with different methods (finite elements vs nodal method) and significative geometrical representativeness...

mapping of thermal results to mechanical models and guidelines for thermo-elastic (for thermal part)

Almost every Scientific and Earth Observation mission is faced with the need for thermo-elastic verification.
The European Space community has been, despite all previous activities to date, lacking commonly accepted guidelines for performing the end-to-end thermo-elastic verification.
To solve this issue, ESA emitted an invitation to tender, in 2020, to the European Community to work for...
