BEAMIDE aims to develop advanced tools to deepen the understanding of the effects of radiation on various components that, in turn, find application in different fields: from medicine to space, from nuclear to IT.
The main project is MRADSIM, an easy-to-use software with a modern and intuitive graphical interface that allows users, even non-programmers, to simulate the effects of radiation on electronic and electromechanical devices, as well as on biological structures and various materials.
It was initially developed within the National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) in Perugia.
The need arose to simulate the reaction to the effects of radiation on a satellite that was to be sent into space. The investigation and simulation process for such an advanced and large system led researchers to undertake a lengthy and in-depth analysis and experimentation journey. During this phase, they developed a prototype software that would be suitable not only for that satellite but for any other system to be tested. MRADSIM stands out for its ability to make even the most complex simulations accessible and understandable, allowing for analysis and improvement in terms of precision and reliability.
BEAMIDE is also engaged in a series of projects related to the research and development of radiation detectors, as well as providing RHA testing in accordance with ESA standards and thermo-vacuum (TVAC) testing.Albania, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany (all), Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Moldova, Netherlands, North Macedonia, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland (all), Turkey, UK (all)["Space","NewSpace"]

BAE Systems’ advanced, high reliability radiation-hardened electronic components, cards, processors, and units have been enabling civil, commercial, and national security space missions for more than 50 years.
Overcoming the effects of space radiation on electronics
The space radiation environment creates extremely harsh operating conditions for on-board electronics, and BAE Systems brings decades of experience providing products that survive them. The ionizing radiation of space accelerates the aging of electronic parts and materials, leading to degraded electrical performance or even permanent failures. In addition to radiation damage, electronics that operate in spacecraft applications can be exposed to extreme temperatures – ranging from -55°C to 125°C – over mission lifetimes that can exceed 15 years. To succeed in these challenging environments, BAE Systems has developed a large portfolio of trusted, high-reliability, radiation-hardened (rad-hard) electronics specifically designed for space applications.Albania, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany (all), Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Moldova, Netherlands, North Macedonia, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland (all), Turkey, UK (all)["Space"]

Thales Alenia Space has developed a new generation of “high power” avionic equipment intended to be at the heart of the Spacebus NEO solution, the SDIU MK2. Thanks to the intrinsic versatility and flexibility of the DPC, the ASIC was implemented in all the different boards of the SDIU, covering a wide range of applications :
The STUB module (STUB) implements the external 1553 I/F and the generation of the unit internal power supplies, the redundancy configuration of the unit, and the backplane communications and management via CAN bus, all CAN communications being performed by DPC’s. It also includes the external CAN interfaces for the payload interfaces in future satellites.The Full Step motor drive and Plasmic Propulsion module (FSPP) is mainly intended for the positioning of the steerable telecom antennas, but the same module is able to cover both that functionality and the plasmic propulsion, because the needs are similar; this is why the module is present on both the PLDIU and the PFDIU
The Reaction Wheels and platform DISTribution module (RDIST) manages the distribution of power to platform units, distribution and control of platform heaters, and the interfacing with the reaction wheels of which there are 4 on the satellite.
The Chemical PROPulsion module (CPROP)covers command and control of all of the elements of the chemical propulsion. The Micro Step solar Array Drive module (MSAD) covers command and control of the solar array deployment and the solar array mechanism motor driving in micro-step mode.
The Lithium Battery Management module (LBM) monitors Li-Ion cell and battery voltages, and command and control of cell bypass and cell balancing elements.
On top of these equipments, the analog IP developed in the frame of the DPC are currently being reused by TAS UK to develop a specific GYRO Asic intended for NEOSAT platform.
DPC for Space Applications
The DPC ASIC is currently used in the new TAS “ medium power” avionics product range, consistent with SAVOIR roadmap.
In this new portfolio, the RTU under development for the CERES project is also relying on the DPC performances. It brings efficient, flexible and scalable mechanical and electrical architectures. It also allows the implementation of a very large panel of functions (TM/TC, propulsion, distribution, AOCS, …).
Another innovative product is the Carrier Module RTU (CRTU) to be used in Exomars Project. Inspired from medium power avionic architecture of the RTU, the CRTU contains the following modules: STUB for control and communications, PROP for proplusion management and IO for various interfaces management . All theses modules are entirely DPC-based.
In cooperation with CNES, Onera launched some experimentations to demonstrate the performances of vibrating MEMS inertial sensors DPC driven for various applications. A dedicated presentation by Onera is planned in the frame of this AMICSA 2016 conference.
The DLR Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics (RM) is going to develop a new multisensorial robotic arm with seven joints for space applications like On-Orbit-Servicing. Each joint of this robot shall consist of a Force-Torque-Sensor, an absolute position sensor for the drive side and a motor commutation sensor for the used BLDC motor. The motor control of the BLDC motor is based on a current control algorithm and a Space-Vector-Modulation for the current set-point vector. In addition, some communication tasks and housekeeping data monitoring at a lower frequency must be performed, too. All these central tasks shall be performed on the DPC.Albania, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany (all), Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Moldova, Netherlands, North Macedonia, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland (all), Turkey, UK (all)["Space","NewSpace"]
