Advanced Design Project (ADP)
So-called Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are becoming increasingly important in aviation and can be used in various application scenarios, such as transport, surveillance or inspection. UAVs are typically controlled by several propellers driven by electric motors. To investigate the operating behavior of such an electric drive train, the FSR has a test bench with a wide range of measurement options.

Masterthesis, Advanced Design Project (ADP)
Background:
At the Institute of Flight Systems and Automatic Control the execution of flight missions with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that require monitoring by ground personnel is beeing researched. A ground operator can either supervise a single UAV (1:1) or an entire fleet of UAVs (1:n). As part of the research, the interaction between the highly automated UAVs and the ground personnel is to be investigated, and tasks and requirements for the ground personnel are to be defined and evaluated in a suitable research environment.

Advanced Design Project (ADP)
As part of the “ESA_Lab@TU Darmstadt,” the TU Darmstadt, in collaboration with ESOC/ESA, has established a facility focused on the analysis and preliminary design of complex technical systems, known as the Concurrent Engineering Lab (CEL). In addition to academic applications at TU Darmstadt, the CEL aims to conduct Concurrent Engineering (CE) sessions for ESOC missions in the domain of Ground Segment and Operations (GS&OPS). Despite numerous CE facilities in the aerospace sector, the method has not yet been fully established for development and operational design studies for GS&OPS. To address this, the CEL needs to tailor key elements of CE, encompassing the entire CE process, to meet the specific requirements and needs of GS&OPS. This entails analysing tools and software that can support and enhance the entire CE process, from initialisation and preparation to the actual sessions and wrap-up.
