EDA is delighted to invite you to attend the Simulation Technologies for Space Engineering workshop,scheduled to be held at the Royal Higher Institute for Defence (RHID), Rue Hobbema 8, 1000 Brussels (Belgium) on 26 February 2025, from 09:00 AM to 17:00 PM CET.
This workshop will delve into key trends and technological advancements driving innovation in simulation-based space engineering, with a particular focus on supporting military operational scenarios. It presents a significant opportunity to define the scope for future research and technology (R&T) efforts in utilizing advanced simulation technologies for space engineering in defence applications. The workshop also aims to foster the launch of new partnerships and collaborative projects.
This initiative is organised back-to-back with the 42nd Meeting of CapTech Simulation Technologies. Submissions may address various areas of innovation, including but not limited to:
• Use of machine learning algorithms and dynamic simulations for predicting orbital paths and
analysing satellite behaviour, positioning, and potential threats;
• Simulation of satellite swarming and constellation dynamics• Simulation of space-based imagery (e.g., multispectral and radar) for training military
personnel to enhance battlespace awareness;
• Virtual reality and optical simulations for optimizing human-machine interfaces and sensors;
• Multiphysics simulations for complex space environments;
• Applicability to space engineering of digital modelling and simulation technologies
traditionally used in non-space areas.

The workshop is open to members of EDA’s CapTechs and military personnel or professionals who are not yet affiliated with any EDA CapTech.
Participation at the workshop is on-site only and free of charge. To participate, please confirm your attendance by registering by 31 January 2025. EDA will confirm registrations until 07 February 2025. The final agenda will be shared approximately one week before the event.
