3D Photogrammetry

A problem in modular shipbuilding is the lack of a reliable, low-cost method of obtaining and utilizing dimensional control in 3D. Photogrammetry has been successfully used as a tool for this application, but because of the large number of systematic errors associated with film-based cameras, only very large shipyards are using it. Recently, developments in Charge Coupled Device (CCD) imaging arrays for cameras have allowed some success in applying photogrammetric techniques dimensional control Mainstream photogrammetric software and hardware configurations have been expensive and complicated. Digital camera systems and computers were purchased and programmed to tie existing inexpensive software packages with Geometric Dilution of Control (GDOP) error propagation analysis, originally designed for topographic mapping, into a tool for production shipyard fabrication dimensional control.

Imaging Spectroscopy is a technique in which a spectrum is obtained for each spatial resolution element across a wide field. The data is essentially 3-D, and may be viewed as a series of monochromatic images, or as a two dimensional array of spectra. A device generating such data may be called an imaging spectrometer. In a previous paper (Atherton, 1983 SPIE 445, 535) three different imaging spectrometers - based on grating, Fabry-Perot and Fourier Transform devices - were compared in terms of their ability to obtain spectral and spatial information over a wide field and broad band, to the same spectral resolution and S/N ratio, using the same detector array. From such a study it is clear that interferometer based devices are significantly faster than conventional grating spectrographs.

Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic

The Extreme Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) is a core instrument on the Japanese Solar-B mission and is due for launch in the summer of 2006. EIS is a 3.2 m long telescope employing grating optics and a pair of charge coupled device imaging cameras working in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) region in two separate wavelength bands between 170-210 and 240-290 Å. To house all the telescope subsystems, a novel carbon fibre reinforced plastic structure was developed in collaboration with McLaren Composites Limited (UK) to meet a set of the demanding performance requirements in terms of dimensional stability, rigidity, and structural cleanliness as well as being able to survive the harsh launch environment of the Japanese M-V rocket. The final design was based on a honeycomb panel structure using stiff carbon fibre laminates. This case study describes some of the design challenges that were overcome for this project to produce the engineering, mechanical, and thermal models. Particular attention is given to the cleanliness control strategy to preserve the EUV optical throughput, the method of attachment to the spacecraft, and of optical subsystems as well as the instrument thermal design.
