• TOPICS


    Please find below the main themes that will be covered in the conference, with some illustrative examples. 
    These are open concepts please feel free to suggest other applications.

  • ► TOPIC 1: Effects of space, extreme environments, ground specific conditions on materials (UV, charged particles, ATOX): mitigation, materials resistance

     
    • Radiation-induced ageing, charging,
    • Atomic Oxygen effects,
    • Gas-surface interaction and related phenomena (VLEO),
    • Modeling and mitigation approach for managing environnemental effects,
    • Ground storage problematics (long term, storage conditions),
    • Protection of materials in planetary environments (Venus, Saturn, Mercury…),
    • Dusty environment (lunar, martian, ….),
    • Thruster plume induced effects,
    • Micrometeoroids and debris effects on materials (possible synergistic effects).

  • ► TOPIC 2: Flight experiments: design, data and lesson learned 

     
    • Test Facilities and platforms,
    • Ground testing (best practice, data).

  • ► TOPIC 3: Contamination

     
    • Contamination mitigation and related problems (degradation of materials performance, electrical build-up...),
    • Contamination testing and modelling, mitigation approach, species separation,
    • Ageing induced contamination (Outgassing, ATOX, UV),
    • Properties of contaminated surfaces.

  • ► TOPIC 4: Materials, Processes, Clean space
