TAC Meeting Report (April)
• SciTech Paper Stats – During the last TAC Exec meeting someone
asked for the paper stats of past years. Results are attached.
SciTech numbers show we are staying around the same as in the
past. SDM 2012 was held in Hawaii with limited space and great
demand which resulted in high submission/rejection rates. The
combined numbers for ASM, SDM and GNC do not reflect SciTech
numbers. SDM and GNC did not have a full year between
conferences
14
DETC Newsletter
• SciTech and Aviation publications
 SciTech (inputs due 12/15/2014)
– Cover Aviation results and DBF plans
 Aviation (inputs due 5/31/2015 ?)
– Cover SciTech results, DBF results, and Design Award
Winner
• Need volunteer(s) to help with newsletter
• Need inputs from S/C’s, SDM, DBF,
Membership, etc
15
DETC Year End Article
• Due in September
• Topics for this year?
16
Design Guide Sub-committee
• 6th Edition published in late 2012
 Sales to date are 189
• Design Guide App released in May 2013
 2,855 downloads (primarily students who get the
premium version for free)
 75 sales of Premium Edition
• Target date for 7th Ed in 2017
 Actual date pending sales vs quantity on hand
17
Design Guide App
• IOS only version at this time (iPad and iPhone)
• Free version with minimal information (marketing
only)
• Premium version available
 $19.95 – 75 sold to date
 Basically an e-book type format with all material having
(affordable) digital permissions from sources
 AIAA treats e-book sales the same as hard copy with
respect to royalties!!
18
Design Guide App - cont
• Future Updates




iOS version update
Android version
Possible Microsoft version
Possible interactive version – formulas, table look-up, etc
19
7th Edition
• 2017 target date
• Three areas identified for updates:
 Ch 8 – Electrical Design (no updates for the 6th ed)
 Sources and references
– Some are very outdated and need more recent versions
as the reference
– Some have been identified by AIAA Pubs as having very
high permissions fees, especially for the App
 Figures
– Only new figures and figures requiring metrification were
updated
20
7th Edition Updates
• Do not have to wait for the release of the 7th
edition to publish updates!
 Any updated material, references, figures can be
pushed to the App
 Provides incentive to make continuous updates
 Should consider a regular schedule for an update
(like twice a year – new figures, references, etc)
21
Pocket Guide
• Considering low cost pocket guide version





Similar to free version App
For advertising and marketing purposes
Possible TAC funding to publish
Need cost estimate from AIAA Pubs
Draft provided by AIAA Pubs
22
Participation Model
• The participation model was accepted for
implementation in 2009
 If a member does not meet the requirements in a
calendar year, he/she will be on probation the
following year and must meet requirements that year
or may be dismissed from the TC
 Since new members are not officially members of
the TC until May 1, the participation requirements do
not apply until the beginning of the following year
23
TC Participation in Two or Three Forums
• Is anyone attending the Space Forum this year that
could report back on technical content?
24
Awards
• Design Engineering Award Nominations
 Was awarded at SciTech to Michael Benjamin/GE
 We have a goal to get 6 quality nominations for the next
award
 Additional comments:
– The award recipient cannot have been a member of the TC for at
least two years
– We need to NOT rely on AIAA only to advertise and solicit
nominations for this award
– Create and post flyers at all conferences
– Send solicitation letter to engineering management of major
aerospace firms for nominations
 What are the dates we are focusing toward?
