Forum on Tracking Detector Mechanics 2013

19 Jun 2013, 08:00 → 21 Jun 2013, 18:00 Europe/London

Dennis Sciama Lecture Theatre (Oxford)

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

Topics include

• Deflection, stability and precision of the structures, achieved and revisited requirements for the next generation
• Choices of construction materials
• Structural issues concerning humidity or outgassing
• Tracker to beam-pipe interfaces, bakeout scenarios
• Thermal expansion differences inside the detector
• Vibration issues such as bond wire vibration (transport, operation)
• Effects on mechanics during fast discharge of magnet coils
• Radiation and mechanics: A discussion about the impacts of radiation on the design, materials and also issues like access constraints
• Mass and therefore radiation lengths of mechanics, electronics and cooling
• Mass and radiation lengths of cables and pipes
• Service management: What strategies do we have to deal with services? How can we minimise installation and testing times?
• Cooling issues inside tracker volume
• Supply and return lines inside full detector volume
• Pipe materials, pipe connection techniques and fittings
• Humidity control, inside detector volume and along services
• Gas flushing and gas cooling of tracking detectors
• Rails for support and guidance
• Alignment systems, requirements and "weak modes" of the system, in-situ adjustments, sensors including load sensors
• Managment of transport loads
• Failure management: What do we do to achieve a tracker with maximum duty cycle
• Maintenance scenarios and the required special tooling
• FEA and its comparison to real objects
