Simulation and Modelling
Spacecraft simulators are an integral part of any space mission - they allow engineers to test all aspects of the spacecraft in a non-critical environment, provide a training tool for operators before the spacecraft has been launched, and post launch they provide a safe means of testing new procedures and software changes.
SciSys has been and is involved in the development of many simulators for ESA including:
- GOCE
- Aeolus
- Galileo IOV
- GIOVE-B
- Integral
- Cluster II
- ENVISAT
- ERS-2
For more information on SciSys' experience of spacecraft simulators, see our GOCE, Galileo IOV and GIOVE-B Case Studies.
SciSys is involved in the development of sophisticated models for the following:
- Interferometer Constellation Deployment and Control
- Bepi-Colombo Lander
- Mars Planetary Ascent Vehicle
