Safety Design for Space Systems (Hardcover)

Progress in space safety lies in the acceptance of safety design
and engineering as an integral part of the design and
implementation process for new space systems. Safety must be seen
as the principle design driver of utmost importance from the outset
of the design process, which is only achieved through a culture
change that moves all stakeholders toward front-end loaded safety
concepts. This approach entails a common understanding and
mastering of basic principles of safety design for space systems at
all levels of the program organisation.
Fully supported by the International Association for the
Advancement of Space Safety (IAASS), written by the leading figures
in the industry, with frontline experience from projects ranging
from the Apollo missions, Skylab, the Space Shuttle and the
International Space Station, this book provides a comprehensive
reference for aerospace engineers in industry.
It addresses each of the key elements that impact on space systems
safety, including: the space environment (natural and induced);
human physiology in space; human rating factors; emergency
capabilities; launch propellants and oxidizer systems; life support
systems; battery and fuel cell safety; nuclear power generators
(NPG) safety; habitat activities; fire protection; safety-critical
software development; collision avoidance systems design;
operations and on-orbit maintenance.
* The only comprehensive space systems safety reference, its
must-have status within space agencies and suppliers, technical and
aerospace libraries is practically guaranteed
* Written by the leading figures in the industry from NASA, ESA,
JAXA, (et cetera), with frontline experience from projects ranging
from the Apollo missions, Skylab, the Space Shuttle, small and
large satellite systems, and the International Space Station.
* Superb quality information for engineers, programme managers,
suppliers and aerospace technologists; fully supported by the IAASS
(International Association for the Advancement of Space
Safety)
