Deconstructs some of the most commonly-encountered and challenging problems arising within engineering domains such as thermodynamics, separation processes, chemical kinetics, fluid dynamics, and engineering mathematics. It provides students ample practice in solving problems, and the presentation of detailed step-by-step explanations for each problem from start to finish in this book helps students follow the train of thought toward arriving at the final numerical solutions to the problems.
The definition of all space systems starts with the establishment of its fundamental parameters: requirements to be fulfilled, overall system and satellite design, analysis and design of the critical elements, developmental approach, cost, and schedule. This book concentrates on understanding the interaction between the forces which influence the definition of a space system and refers to the entire system: space and ground segments, mission objectives as well as to cost, risk, and mission success probabilities.
