"Course Contents The Collaborative Space (System) Design Project (CSDP) is a TU Delft/Faculty of Aerospace Engineering (AE) Master course\nin engineering design. The course focuses on the conceptualization and preliminary design phase of a space mission, spacecraft,\nor space instrument and starts on a design challenge co-created by the CSDP organization team and a company, research group\nor other entity.\nAll projects on offer are multi-disciplinary projects, i.e. projects that require different types of design work and knowledge to be\ncombined to provide a design solution. All projects are carried out by a team of students that have to organize and manage\nthemselves.\nEach project is to be organized in 3 phases similar to NASA's System Design Process as defined in a.o. \"NASA's System\nEngineering Handbook\". Some adaptations have been made though to make it fit in the limited course time. The phases are:\n1) Exploration phase; In this phase the team is to explore the problem, the needs, the competition and past missions and to\ndevelop a proposal for the next phase of the project. This includes the identification of a range of high-potential concepts for\nstudy in phase 2, the work distribution, etc.\n2) Concepts design studies phase; In phase 2, the high-potential concepts defined in phase 1 are analyzed in detail for feasibility,\ntraded and a best concept is selected. Additionally the plan for the next phase is to be generated.\n3) Detailed design phase. In this final phase of the project the single concept selected in phase 2 is worked out in detail and a\nplan is developed for the further development of the design is generated.\nEach project phase ends with a review (feedback moment) wherein other teams and expert staff reflect on the outcomes\ngenerated and the engineering design methods used.\nDuring the quarter, workshops/instructions will be held to provide knowledge and training on selected management and\nengineering design topics, including agile management, and the use of integrated design modelling, i.e. the integration of all the\ngeometry, configuration, analysis, and requirements verification into a generative, parametric, unified computational model\nwhere data is shared seamlessly between the different disciplines.\nThe course does not focus on teaching the required disciplinary knowledge and experience, but rather focuses on decision\nmaking, the collaborative integration of the knowledge and experience available in the team, and the iterative design method\nusing different levels of model fidelity to create a feasible design solution in answer to the problem identified by the \"customer\".\nAs projects vary from year to year and may encompass knowledge that is not available in the team, this may require that\nparticipants actively acquire the knowledge required.\nStudy Goals The course aims to develop student skills in multi-disciplinary team projects from a challenge-driven perspective. In more detail,\nstudents will advance their ability in ...:\n- ... disciplinary design including modelling, simulation, visualization, quantitative analysis of alternatives, design tool\nverification, calibration and validation, and design refinement.\n- ... the process of engineering design (ABET definition), including the steps in design, the (iterative) nature of the process,\ndevelopment of a Straw Man design, and development of process models.\n- ... multidisciplinary design, thereby taking into account differences between the different disciplines involved in terms of a.o.\ndifferences in fidelity level of disciplinary models, and dissimilar assumptions;\n- ... systems engineering, including the design phasing, work breakdown and work distribution, modeling and interfaces, and the\nrole of specialty engineering (e.g. cost-, RAMS-, and mass modelling and configuration design).\n- ... concurrent engineering, as opposed to the more classical sequential engineering (the waterfall method).\n- ... project management and teamwork (assigning roles and responsibilities, setting goals and objectives, coordination and\nmanagement of team process, decision making, handling conflicts, creativity, empowerment and motivation, communication,\nand reflection on own work and work of others)." . .
