EADS North America's TYX Corporation Introduces DynaWorks(R) Into the U.S. Data Processing and Management Market
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) RESTON, VA, July 16 / MARKET WIRE/ --
The DynaWorks? tool for data processing,
management and analysis is now available in the U.S. market, offering a
highly capable software program that benefits from 20 years of service in
test centers and other facilities around the world.
DynaWorks was developed by EADS Astrium's Intespace subsidiary, and is
marketed and supported in the United States by TYX Corporation, a
subsidiary of EADS North America.
This software tool is becoming an industry benchmark for real-time and
post-processing of information from any data acquisition system. Its
unique data management capabilities offer lower test costs while optimizing
the process of acquiring, analyzing and automatically reporting the test
data.
DynaWorks supports a full range of applications, including structural
dynamics, mechanical evaluations, electromagnetic environment assessments,
and thermal test and analysis for ground-, air- and space-based systems.
This includes space launch vehicles and missiles, military aircraft and
weapons, tanks, trucks and other platforms. DynaWorks tools are in service
at more than 300 locations in Europe and Asia.
One of DynaWorks' most demanding uses is in support of Europe's Automated
Transfer Vehicle (ATV), which currently is servicing the International
Space Station. The ATV was launched to the space station earlier this
year, delivering a payload of equipment, food, fuel, water and oxygen for
the orbital facility's crew.
DynaWorks is providing real-time monitoring and analysis of ATV data
throughout the spacecraft's multi-month mission while docked to the manned
orbital facility. This includes the transfer of propellant and water
supplies, as well as using the ATV's own propulsion system to boost the
International Space Station's orbital altitude.
For this application, DynaWorks was installed at the ATV's Toulouse, France
control center, as well as at the spacecraft's design/production site in
Les Mureaux, outside of Paris. Visual displays and additional analysis
tools were created for specific data handling requirements in support of
the ATV's attitude control, propulsion, communications, telemetry, thermal
control, power levels and other functions.
All flight parameters for the Automated Transfer Vehicle are stored in
real-time or on a deferred basis in a DynaWorks database, which is then
made available for display and analysis. The amount of data treated is
more than 10 gigabytes a day.
