Simulation Fridays - S07E04 "From Concept to Orbit: Digital Mission Engineering with STK"

Modern space and aerospace missions can't be designed in a single-discipline silo thermal, optical, RF, structural, and aerodynamic behavior all interact across the mission lifecycle. This episode shows how Ansys Systems Tool Kit (STK) acts as the digital mission engineering backbone, integrating with Thermal Desktop, Zemax OpticStudio, HFSS, Discovery/SpaceClaim, and Fluent to model a system end-to-end. Attendees will see how connecting these tools inside STK turns isolated simulations into a unified, physics-based picture of mission performance. Presenter: Paschalis Dompoudis — Application Engineer
