  • Maintenance Strategy and Its Importance in Rocket Launching System-An Indian Prospective
    ISSN(Online) : 2319-8753 ISSN (Print) : 2347-6710 International Journal of Innovative Research in Science, Engineering and Technology (An ISO 3297: 2007 Certified Organization) Vol. 5, Issue 5, May 2016 Maintenance Strategy and its Importance in Rocket Launching System-An Indian Prospective N Gayathri1, Amit Suhane2 M. Tech Research Scholar, Mechanical Engineering, M.A.N.I.T, Bhopal, M.P. India Assistant Professor, Mechanical Engineering, M.A.N.I.T, Bhopal, M.P. India ABSTRACT: The present paper mainly describes the maintenance strategies followed at rocket launching system in India. A Launch pad is an above-ground platform from which a rocket or space vehicle is vertically launched. The potential for advanced rocket launch vehicles to meet the challenging , operational, and performance demands of space transportation in the early 21st century is examined. Space transportation requirements from recent studies underscoring the need for growth in capacity of an increasing diversity of space activities and the need for significant reductions in operational are reviewed. Maintenance strategies concepts based on moderate levels of evolutionary advanced technology are described. The vehicles provide a broad range of attractive concept alternatives with the potential to meet demanding operational and maintenance goals and the flexibility to satisfy a variety of vehicle architecture, mission, vehicle concept, and technology options. KEY WORDS: Preventive Maintenance, Rocket Launch Pad. I. INTRODUCTION A. ROCKET LAUNCH PAD A Launch pad is associate degree above-ground platform from that a rocket ballistic capsule is vertically launched. A launch advanced may be a facility which incorporates, and provides needed support for, one or a lot of launch pads.

  • An Analytical Search for Efficient Microcontroller-On Board Computer for Veltech-Nanosat
    International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology Vol. 29, No. 6s, (2020), pp. 232-236 An Analytical Search for Efficient Microcontroller-On Board Computer for Veltech-NanoSat 1Prabhu Kumar Surarapu, 2Tumuluri Sree Sravya, 3D.Ruthra Prabha 1Assistant professor, 2,3UG student Department of ECE Veltech Rangarajan Dr.Sagunthala R&D Institute of Science and Technology, Chennai Abstract On Board Computer (OBC) isthe heart of the satellites and particularly, It is the main subsystem in the Nano satellite.OBC is responsible for communication, data storage and functional control between all subsystems in the satellite. Right Choice of micro controller is very important task since complete monitoring of the subsystems depends on the OBC. The probability of the success of the satellite mission depends on the reliability of microcontroller and components. In this paper we have listed down, compared and analysed the microcontrollers that were used earlier in nanosatellites and pico satellites like PRATHAM, JUGNU, SATYABAMASAT, ICUBESAT,STUDSAT and SWAYAM. Key words--- On Board Computer (OBC), Microcontroller, VeltechNanoSat, Nano satellite I. INTRODUCTION Veltech-NanoSat, the first satellite initiative of Veltech group of institutions, Chennai, Tamilnadu,India, is in the process of development at Veltech Rangarajan Dr.Sagunthala R&D Institute of Science and Technology under guidance of Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) . This project was initiated with the purpose enabling the students and faculty who are involved with design, analysis and testing. The important mission of this nano satellite is to monitor the agricultural fields, land sliding, forest fire, flow and quantity of water. Like other satellites Veltech-NanoSat has also various subsystems which include Payload, Power, Communication, Attitude control, Structure, Mechanisms, Thermal and On Board Computer (OBC).

  • Aryabhata to Mangalyaan
    Reaching for the stars, India’s quest for the outer space: Aryabhata to Mangalyaan Pallava Bagla Science Journalist-India India has a rich tradition of using outer space as a tool for national development. The poorest of the poor have always been the beneficiaries of India’s space technologies, from farmers to fisher folk Indian satel- lites touch the lives of almost the entire 1.3 billion population. As India celebrates its seventieth birthday it has already entered the golden era of space technology, sectors like satellite television, banking, smart city development, weather forecasting, smart phones, e- governance, satellite aided navigation are all catering to India’s unend- ing appetite to deploy high technology to ease the life of the common man. India’s quest for space has been pioneered by the Indian Space Re- search Organisation (ISRO) set up in 1969 and today has an annual budget of about $ 1.4 billion. The country has a constellation of 44 satel- lites in orbit and can now on its own launch up to four tons of communi- cation satellites into orbit. This gives India end to end capabilities in space technology from making its own satellites to launching its own rockets and has even sent an Indian made satellite Mangalyaan or the Mars Orbiter Mission all the way to the Mars travelling a distance of over 200 million kilometres. The journey for ISRO began from the humble fishing village of Thumba on the coast of the Arabian Sea where the scientists used the premises of a church to set up the first rocket launch facilities and the first rockets were carried on bicycles and first satellites pulled in on bull- ock carts.

  • MEA Jan 19, 2019 India's Next Big Dream! Send an Indianinto Space
    MEA Jan 19, 2019 India’s next Big Dream! Send an Indianinto Space on Indian Technology. New Delhi, India, January 19, 2019 By: Pallava Bagla India has a new dream, a deep conviction to launch an Indian into space, from Indian soil on an Indian rocket by 2022 which is before the seventy-fifth birthday for India’s independence. Work has started in right earnest at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) which is expected to deliver this Herculean task in less than 1.4 billion dollars, possibly the cheapest human space flight ever to be undertaken in the world. This confidence and promise comes riding on the repeated successes that the Indian space agency has tasted in the past. Speaking from the ramparts of the Red Fort in Delhi, on August 15, 2018 Prime Minister Narendra Modi a known space buff said `we have a dream; our scientists have a dream. We have resolved that by 2022, when India celebrates 75 years of Independence or maybe even before that, certainly some of our young boys and girls will unfurl the tricolour in space. With Mangalyaan our scientists have proved their capabilities. I feel proud to announce that very soon as a part of our manned-space mission; we shall be sending an Indian into space. This will be done through the pursuit of our esteemed scientists, and we will proudly find ourselves as the fourth such nation to have launched a successful man space mission.’ When India succeeds it will be the fourth country after Russia, United States of America and China that have independent capabilities to launch humans into space.
