This paper describes the upgrade and application of Technology Roadmapping Strategy (TRIS) methodology to propose an incremental path (i.e., a technology roadmap) towards the increase of Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of STRATOFLY key-enabling technologies to meet the project’s goal (TRL 6 in 2035). The paper discusses several improvements introduced within the roadmapping methodology in order to deal with future high-speed transportation systems. In particular, basing on Space Shuttle cost data, a general framework to assess the cost of TRL Transits for hypersonic technologies is proposed. In addition, a detailed analysis of future activities to be performed to pursue hypersonic technologies is included, with special emphasis on the importance of highly-integrated flight demonstrators at high TRL level in relation to involved stakeholders’ impact and needs.

Abstract
This paper describes the upgrade and application of Technology Roadmapping Strategy (TRIS) methodology to propose an incremental path (i.e., a technology roadmap) towards the increase of Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of STRATOFLY key-enabling technologies to meet the project’s goal (TRL 6 in 2035). The paper discusses several improvements introduced within the roadmapping methodology in order to deal with future high-speed transportation systems. In particular, basing on Space Shuttle cost data, a general framework to assess the cost of TRL Transits for hypersonic technologies is proposed. In addition, a detailed analysis of future activities to be performed to pursue hypersonic technologies is included, with special emphasis on the importance of highly-integrated flight demonstrators at high TRL level in relation to involved stakeholders’ impact and needs.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
