This book presents a selection of advanced case studies that cover a substantial range of issues and real-world challenges and applications in space engineering. Vital mathematical modeling, optimization methodologies and numerical solution aspects of each application case study are presented in detail, with discussions of a range of advanced model development and solution techniques and tools.
Space engineering challenges are discussed in the following contexts:
•Advanced Space Vehicle Design
•Computation of Optimal Low Thrust Transfers
•Indirect Optimization of Spacecraft Trajectories
•Resource-Constrained Scheduling,
•Packing Problems in Space
•Design of Complex Interplanetary Trajectories
•Satellite Constellation Image Acquisition
•Re-entry Test Vehicle Configuration Selection
•Collision Risk Assessment on Perturbed Orbits
•Optimal Robust Design of Hybrid Rocket Engines
•Nonlinear Regression Analysis in Space Engineering
•Regression-Based Sensitivity Analysis and Robust Design
•Low-Thrust Multi-Revolution Orbit Transfers•Modeling and Optimization of Balance Layout Problems
•Pilot-Induced Oscillations Alleviation
•Modeling and Optimization of Hybrid Transfers to Near-Earth Objects
•Probabilistic Safety Analysis of the Collision Between Space Debris and Satellite
•Flatness-based Low-thrust Trajectory Optimization for Spacecraft Proximity Operations
The contributing authors are expert researchers and practitioners in either the space engineering and/or in the applied optimization fields. Researchers and practitioners working in various applied aspects of space engineering will find this book practical and informative. Academics, graduate and post-graduate students in aerospace engineering, applied mathematics, operations research, optimization, and optimal control, will find this book useful.

About the Author
Giorgio Fasano is a researcher and practitioner at Thales Alenia Space, with three decades of experience in the field of optimization and space engineering applications. He holds a MSc degree in Mathematics, and he is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA, UK), with the designations of Chartered Mathematician (IMA, UK) and Chartered Scientist (Science Council, UK). His interests include mathematical modelling, operations research, mixed integer programming, global optimization, and optimal control. He is the author of Solving Non-standard Packing Problems by Global Optimization and Heuristics (Springer, 2014), and a co-editor of Operations Research in Space and Air (Ciriani et al., Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2003), as well as co-editor with Pintér of two other volumes, see below. He also wrote a number of other publications related to optimization in space.
János D. Pintér is a researcher and practitioner with over four decades of experience in the area of systems modeling, analytics, and optimization, with an emphasis on algorithm and software development for nonlinear optimization. He holds MSc, PhD and DSc degrees in Mathematics. He has authored and edited 10 books (so far) including the award-winning monograph Global Optimization in Action. He also wrote nearly 200 peer-reviewed journal articles, book chapters, and other research documents. Dr. Pintér is (or has been) a member and officer of professional organizations including CORS, EUROPT, HORS, INFORMS; and he serves / served on the editorial board of international professional journals including the Journal of Global Optimization. Dr. Pintér is the principal developer or co-developer of a range of nonlinear optimization software products. These products are used worldwide by researchers and practitioners in academia, and at business and research organizations. He also offers optimization courses (as well as a range of other university or professional training courses) on demand. For more information, please visit www.pinterconsulting.com.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
