1 AAE450 Senior Spacecraft Design Brandon Anderson Week 3: February 1st, 2007 Structures Group Taxi Capsule, Electric Propulsion System

2 AAE450 Senior Spacecraft Design Electric Propulsion System Truss –Supports EP system and various vehicles being transported –4 segments –Standard 1.5x Safety Factor –2.5g Max Load –Cube, width = 2m –Al 7075-T6 –Payloads based on Dan Maguire’s calculations SegmentMass (mt) Volume (m^3) Length (m) 120.68220.5 213.68020 320.68220.5 413.68020

3 AAE450 Senior Spacecraft Design EP Continued How to lower this size – Staged Mars Launch Vehicle will reduce payload –2-axis Trusses –Material Choice AlLi Alloy shows advantage in other structures
