MAI is highly qualified to provide technical support in many advanced technology disciplines and has been involved since inception in developing guidance, navigation, and control (GN&C) systems for a wide variety of Aerospace platforms in both commercial and government sectors. The company offers substantial expertise in such diverse areas as:

Control System Design and Stability Analysis
Frequency and Time Domain ACS Analysis
Advanced Control Concepts
Controls/Structures Dynamic Interaction
Multi-Body Dynamics and Bending Mode Analysis
GPS Based Attitude Determination and Controls
Estimation Theory/Kalman Filtering and its Applications
Failure Detection Isolation and Reconfiguration (FDIR)
Modeling, Analysis and Simulation
Software Development and Test
Software IV&V
Hardware Integration and Test

MAI Analysis and Simulation Tools
MAI has extensive array of unique design and analysis tools to support the design process of a wide range of dynamic systems including spacecraft, launch vehicles, aircraft and missile systems.

Satellite and Spacecraft Dynamic Simulations
Simulates on-orbit 6 DOF dynamic spacecraft operations with on-screen graphical display of
spacecraft orientation along with sensor and actuator performance status data.  Excellent tool for independent verification and validation (IV&V) of spacecraft ADACS.

Star Tracker/Gyro and GPS Kalman Filters
Allows designers to assess Kalman filter performance subject to system variations during design process (e.g., Star/GPS drop-outs, sensor noise uncertainties, varying process noises, etc.)

Generic 6 DOF Launch Vehicle Dynamics
Allows designers to evaluate launch vehicle GN&C subsystem performance on various trajectories and weather.  The simulation environment can be easily modified to include the aerodynamic, structural, staging, and propulsion system characteristics of various vehicles.  PC based POST 3D, POST 6D trajectory analysis programs and Missile DatCom aerodynamics analysis program.

MAI has extensive experience with state of the art programming languages such as FORTRAN, C++, Basic, and Pascal.  In addition, MAI has extensively used various software programs for simulation and analysis as MATLAB, SIMULINK, MATHCAD, and Mathematica.

MAI applies advanced technology to the real world
MAI staff have successfully used stare-of-the-art technologies to provide unique solutions to the most challenging system integration and control problems.  These applications include Launch Vehicle GN&C systems, spacecraft attitude determination and control systems (ADACS), large space structure controls, control/structure interaction (CSI), robotics, and intelligent control systems.
