• Jan 4 – 8 in San Diego• Need to confirm Design Engineering Technical

Chair – nominate Lisa Saam Need deputy identified ASAP

• Updates to Call for Papers?

15

DETC Newsletter

• SciTech and Aviation publications SciTech (inputs due 12/15/2014)

– Cover Aviation results and DBF plans Aviation (inputs due 5/31/2015 ?)

– Cover SciTech results, DBF results, and Design Award Winner

• Need volunteer(s) to help with newsletter• Need inputs from S/C’s, SDM, DBF,

Membership, etc

16

DETC Year End Article

• Due in September• Topics for this year

17

Design Guide Sub-committee

• 6th Edition published in late 2012 Sales in 2014 - 52

• Design Guide App released in May 2013 Awaiting 2014 sales stats

• Target date for 7th Ed is 2017 Actual date pending sales vs quantity on hand

AIAA Jan 2015 Book of the Month

Available for $19.95

Design Guide App

• IOS only version at this time (iPad and iPhone)• Free version with minimal information (marketing only)

• Premium version available $19.95 – 25 sold to date Basically an e-book type format with all material having

(affordable) digital permissions from sources AIAA treats e-book sales the same as hard copy with

respect to royalties!!

18

Design Guide App - cont

• Future Updates iOS version update Android version – discussion have started and the work is

about to start Possible Microsoft version Possible interactive version – formulas, table look-up, etc

19

7th Edition

• 2017 target date• Three areas identified for updates:

Ch 8 – Electrical Design (no updates for the 6th ed) Sources and references

– Some are very outdated and need more recent versions as the reference

– Some have been identified by AIAA Pubs as having very high permissions fees, especially for the App

Figures– Only new figures and figures requiring metrification were

updated 20

7th Edition Updates

• Do not have to wait for the release of the 7th edition to publish updates! Any updated material, references, figures can be

pushed to the App Provides incentive to make continuous updates Should consider a regular schedule for an update

(like twice a year – new figures, references, etc)

21

Pocket Guide

• Considering low cost pocket guide version Similar to free version App For advertising and marketing purposes Possible TAC funding to publish Need cost estimate from AIAA Pubs

22

23

Participation Model

• The participation model was accepted for implementation in 2009 If a member does not meet the requirements in a

calendar year, he/she will be on probation the following year and must meet requirements that year or may be dismissed from the TC

Since new members are not officially members of the TC until May 1, the participation requirements do not apply until the beginning of the following year

24

TC Participation in Two or Three Forums

• Does anyone have feedback on the Space Forum?

25

Awards

• Design Engineering Award Nominations Was awarded at SciTech to Michael Benjamin/GE We have a goal to get 6 quality nominations for the next

award Additional comments:

– The award recipient cannot have been a member of the TC for at least two years

– We need to NOT rely on AIAA only to advertise and solicit nominations for this award

– Create and post flyers at all conferences – Send solicitation letter to engineering management of major

aerospace firms for nominations

26

Design, Build, Fly

• 19th year of the competition• 2015 Fly-off will be in Tucson, AZ and hosted by Raytheon Missile

Systems – April 10-12• 115 entries received

In order to control growth to a manageable level, only the first 100 valid entries were accepted – needs review before next year

• Reports are due Feb 23 – look for the request for report judges soon and please help

• TAC/TC funding request Best Paper Award - $175 Design Guide for top ten teams

DBF 2014-15 Competition Rules

• Remote Sensor Delivery and Drop System Flight Mission 1 – Ferry Flight

– Max number of laps in 4 minutes, no payload Flight Mission 2 – Sensor Package Transport Mission

– Three 2 x 6 wood boards x 10 inches long– 3 laps timed

Flight Mission 3 – Sensor Drop Mission– External payload – 12” plastic practice softball– Drop one ball per lap in on the downwind leg– Score is max number of laps with successful, single drop

27

DBF 2014-15 Competition Rules

• Ground Mission - Payload Loading Time Timed payload loading for both Mission 2 and 3

DBF Growth

• DBF continues to grow with no growth in the organizing committee and competition volunteers Turned away 15 teams this year due to the 100 team

limit

• 2015-16 rules will need to address this further, but will require more volunteer support to make any changes Intermediate review process, etc
