\n We are a group of 19 people belonging to the HTSE for Aeronautics and Space (HTSEAS), with researchers, technical staff and trainee researchers. The greater part of the group's members carry out their research work at the Spanish User Support and Operations Centre (E-USOC<\/a>). This is a centre which is a part of the Universidad Polit\u00e9cnica de Madrid specialising in research and development work in the field of aerospace science and technology and is one of seven European laboratories delegated by the European Space Agency<\/a> (ESA) to prepare and carry out experiments on board the International Space Station.<\/span>\n <\/p>","imagen":false,"responsable":"Mar\u00eda Victoria Lapuerta Gonz\u00e1lez","lineas":"Aerospace Vehicles\nComplex Systems\nNumerical Aerodynamics\nPhysics of Fluids in Microgravity\nScientific payload on Space Vehicles\nSpace Operations","direccion":"","telefono":"913363289","pagina_web":"http:\/\/www.eusoc.upm.es\/","email":"gi.coaer@upm.es","actividades":"

\n A significant part of our work is carried out at E-USOC, and we are in charge of preparing and carrying out experiments on board the European Space Agency's (ESA) International Space Station<\/a> (ISS). Our work on one of them \u00bfthe GeoFlow2 experiment\u00bf won us the team prize, awarded in the third edition of the ESA ISS Awards (2013).<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

\n We also carried out experiments with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration<\/a> (NASA), such as IVIDIL, COLLOID and DCMIX2. The results of the latter meant that the industry could design more efficient oil extraction.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

\n Our facilities at the E-USOC have a control room, which is used to carry out the experiments on the ISS, a clean room, a fluids laboratory and an electronics laboratory.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

\n One of our researchers was recently awarded one of the Zeldovich Medals, which are given by the Russian Academy of Sciences<\/a> and the COSPAR<\/a> (Committee on Space Research) to scientists under 36 years of age whose research is outstanding due to its excellence and achievements in the field of space science.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

\n We always try to bring our research and knowledge to teaching in aerospace engineering. This is why we carried out two educational experiments on the ISS: APIS and THEBAS. We have created a laboratory equipped with demonstrator satellites at the HTSE for A & S, we have built a ground station for satellite monitoring, and we are currently taking part in the international QB50 project to put a network of 50 CubeSats in orbit. Their main aim will be to acquire measurements of key parameters and constituents of the thermosphere or lower ionosphere, and research into re-entry into the atmosphere. It will be the first large constellation of CubeSats in orbit. Our satellite also carries three secondary experiments.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

\n We have also built and instrumented a remote control aircraft, which helps students to do simulated flight practice.<\/span>\n <\/p>","contenido":"","pictures":"http:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=709\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=710\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=711\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=712\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=713","descripcion":"
