A meeting to discuss issues of engineering and integration for present and future tracking systems.

Like last year, the Forum on Tracking Detector Mechanics will be organized together with the DRD8 collaboration meeting. We will begin on Monday afternoon with the Forum part and switch on Wednesday afternoon to the DRD8 collaboration meeting part, which will go until Friday noon. 

Topics include

  • Advanced cooling system technologies
  • Qualification of novel materials, including mechanical, thermal, and radiation hardness characterization
  • Engineering solutions for complex mechanical systems: vacuum compatibility, lightweight structural design, precision alignment, vibration mitigation, high-accuracy assembly, and failure analysis
  • Environmental control systems: robotics, automation, and intelligent integrated control architectures
  • Integration, operation, maintenance, and decommissioning of tracking systems
  • Service and lifecycle management: low material budget optimization, high-performance components, and intelligent system integration
  • Numerical simulations: finite element analysis (FEA) with experimental correlation, augmented reality applications, and advanced design and qualification tools.
