Student Launch Project Preliminary Design Review January 10, 2014
Plan for Vehicle Safety Verification Risk Assessment • Team safety briefings • Consult mentor and industry experts • Verify design with calculations and RockSimanalysis • Identify potential hazards for construction and launch • Follow launch checklists and guidelines • NAR High Power Rocket Safety Code • Comply with federal, state, and local laws
Launch Vehicle Verification • Verification of the design requirements will be completed for the structure, recovery, and propulsion subsystems • Analysis using computer simulations or calculations • Testing hardware components • Static testing before launch • Inventory of all structural equipment • Inspect fins for damage and stability • Inspect detachable components for secure attachment • Inspect rail buttons for secure attachment • Inspect all parallel boosters and main motors
LiDAR Hazard Detection System • Rotating Mirrors • Processing Subsystem • Ranging Subsystem • Ground Station
Parallel Inline Motor System • Parallel Stage • Inline Stage • Electronics
Tesseract • Electrometer • CubeSat • Ground Station
Payload Verification • Complete all ground testing pertinent to payload functionality. • Set all control data. • Ensure proper wiring for all electrical components before launch. • Inspect all payload bays and detachment points for structural integrity prior to launch.
