Redwire数字工程能力模拟高级任务计划的混合空间体系结构

关键任务空间系统专家Redwire成功证明了其混合建筑实验室运营环境(HALOE)的能力,以增强美国国防。

The simulation proved HALOE’s potential to facilitate rapid and configurable digitally engineered space mission design that could be used for advanced mission planning to support Joint All-Domain Operations (JADO). The demonstration arose out of a contract awarded by the US空军研究实验室(AFRL) in October 2020, and highlights the potential of digital engineering environments within the space sectors.

“The successful demonstration of HALOE’s ability to ingest and harmonize current and soon-to-be-deployed assets across multiple domains into a single digital environment is an important milestone in achieving JADO,” said Stanley Kennedy Jr., Chief Architect of Redwire. “Realizing the end vision of HALOE will enable key decision makers to evaluate current and future capabilities for integration into existing architectures or envisioned architectures of the future.

“这是空间的数字工程能力的第一个,有可能提高速度并降低未来建筑部署的成本。”

Redwire’s rapid rise

Redwire由私募股权公司创立AE工业伙伴去年6月,不久之后进行了a string of acquisitions,包括航天器组件供应商和工程服务提供商adcole空间深空系统,与世界外部制造专家一起制作太空

在12月,该公司继续狂欢with the addition of payload developer负载路径,他们的技术支持了20多个太空航班NASA国防部(国防部)。

Merging these companies together has provided Redwire with substantial in-orbit servicing, assembly, and manufacturing capabilities. So far, the firm has leveraged Made In Space’s additive manufacturing technologies to3D印刷小说陶瓷涡轮闪烁in-orbit on the International Space Station (ISS).

4月,Redwire宣布计划在纽约证券交易所公开通过特殊目的采购公司(sPAC)合并创世记公司在一项重视该公司约6.15亿美元的交易中。随着合并有可能为该公司提供1.7亿美元的流动资金,合并可以提供Redwire所需的支持,以继续扩大其本已大量的航空航天组合。

成功展示了卤素

Haloe建立在Redwire的Acorn Digital Engineering软件套件的模块化开放系统体系结构(MOSA)框架之上。橡子的开发是为了提供可扩展的,可迅速的重新配置和闭环端到端数字工程环境,以开发太空系统。

配备了相同的多学科设计优化能力和橡子的不可知性界面,因此可以将不同的系统集成在模拟环境中,以快速重新配置空间系统。Haloe基于云的体系结构使团队能够在虚拟数字工程环境中远程合作,无论其位置如何。这有助于单个模拟中多个卫星星座,地面站和不同资产的配置。

作为AFRL合同的一部分所证明的模拟是时间同步的,支持用户定义的时间步骤,以确保所有资产都锁定在锁定状态,以评估特定的任务目标。根据Redwire的说法,高级体系结构最终可以提高空间系统模拟的保真度,同时降低开发成本。

Essentially, the successful demonstration highlighted the potential for HALOE to bolster US national defense and space security, paving the way for faster and lower-cost future architecture deployments and more advanced mission planning.

“MOSA-based digital engineering technologies like ACORN and HALOE are the key to enabling future JADO,” said Maureen O’Brien, Senior Vice President at Redwire Mission Solutions. “At Redwire, we are at the forefront of digital engineering for JADO, and HALOE is one of the first major stepping stones towards implementing future National Security Space architecture.”

利用数字工程功能

数字工程环境对于各种情况下的产品和过程的设计,测试和重塑很有用,而无需不断再现和测试物理制造的组件带来的成本和风险。

在增材制造业中使用这种方法是通过数字双技术,通过这些公司可以在施工之前模拟,优化和评估潜在的制造运营,并测试众多产品迭代。

例如,美国陆军目前正在创建黑鹰直升机的数字双胞胎to evaluate the potential role 3D printing could play in its future supply chain. The Army is 3D scanning each individual component which will be used to create a digital twin of the helicopter from which the Army can reverse engineer and 3D print old or niche parts that may be experiencing supply chain difficulties.

在其他地方,能源巨人皇家荷兰人is试用数字双技术技术在其新加坡炼油厂,以提高其生产率,同时提高可靠性和安全性,以及工业制造公司siemens开放了先进的制造转型中心(AMTC) to allow companies to envisage their advance manufacturing plants with the creation of a digital ‘twin’.
