The need to improve the reliability and safety requirements, has led to increasingly utilization of reliability based design approaches. In this study, reliability based multidisciplinary design optimization for a bipropellant propulsion system has been investigated. The objective function is minimizing the total system mass and design constraints are the total impulse and the temperature of the wall of the combustion chamber. Monte Carlo simulation methodology is used to apply uncertainties in the problem and to show the reliability of the system under these uncertainties. The mass, functional and geometric results of the bipropellant propulsion system are differentiated for optimal design, reliability based design and optimal reliability based design. Then, considering the results, the concepts and definitions of design methods are compared and discussed and it is shown that the reliability based multidisciplinary optimization while having the desired mass, has high reliability.

The CANSAT design, a simple and small scale of a satellite, is an experience for preparing for the design of a Life cycle of the space project. In this paper, the process of design and construction of ARTA CanSat, which is participated in the scientific-exploratory class of international competition in CANSAT Iran, has been written. The operation scenario is that an automatic scanner system, lands after releasing from 300 meters above ground level with using a recovery subsystem (parachute), which is controlled its downfall and landing position by the parachute controller system. During the descent, the data is transmitted by the sensors and sent to the ground station. After touchdown, the Hotwire system's operates and separates the parachute from the Rover section; Then CanSat with the moving on the ground by using the simpler section embedded underneath the structure, performing excavation while moving to the target point. Throughout the mission, the health of the biological payload is preserved.

Considering the importance of the presence of uncertainties in the design of complex engineering systems, in this research multidisciplinary design optimization process for a bipropellant propulsion system in the presence of uncertainties, which in addition to minimizing the system mass, has a high robust. Based on this, the multidisciplinary design view of the bipropellant propulsion system is expressed in both optimum design and optimum robust design. The continued with the application of uncertainties, the mass, operational and geometric results of the propulsion system are expressed in terms of optimum design, robust design and optimum robust design. According to the results, it is shown that the lowest mass occurs in optimum design mode. But with uncertainties, it is observed at this point that it has the least robust and reliability. It also attempts to explain the difference between the concepts of robust design and optimum design with the help of results

The hydrazine propulsion system is one of the most widely used monopropellantpropulsion systems. This low-cost and low mass system is used for the attitude control ofsatellites due to its high specificity and rapid response.For this purpose, in the presentstudy, an optimal design of a hydrazine monopropellant propulsion system with the aim ofminimization of total mass and maximization of total impulse in the framework ofmultidisciplinary design optimization and sequential design method is considered. Inaddition, the principles of multidisciplinary and sequential design are described in thispaper. It has been tried to examine the impact of different elements on design goals andcompare the optimal value obtained in each of the design structures from differentaspects. It should be noted that the design process is accomplished in two ways, i.e.single-objective and multi-objective, and the optimal multidisciplinary design method iscompared with the sequential design method for the hydrazine monopropellant propulsionsystem.
