Next-generation technologies can be transformative. This underlying incentive is why contributors in this eBook, Deployable Engineering: Aerospace & Defense, hammer out the product requirements and solutions behind fundamental mechanisms that support high precision motion control. Drawing from cross-sector deployments in designing, prototyping and producing componentry, brush up on trends and tried-and-true tech that bolster reliability in harsh conditions.
What you will learn:
- How design and test engineers went above and beyond to deliver a test bench system for armored vehicles.
- What the aerospace industry can do to equip itself with the right sensors to support the development of advanced air mobility.
- Explore what’s behind the collaborative work of munitions and energetics and mechanical engineering professors on propellant ignition studies for modern defense solutions.
- Brush up on the basics of physics for drive-systems.
- Discover how strain wave gears—trusted in satellites, spacecraft, and rovers—are engineered for extreme environments, high torque and maintenance-free performance.
