1. Introduction

Welcome to the publication of the Proceedings of the International Conference on Aerospace Science and Technology (ICASST) 2024, which was hosted at the facilities of Unidad Profesional Interdisciplinaria en Ingeniería y Tecnologías Avanzadas (UPIITA), Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN), in Gustavo A. Madero, Mexico City, Mexico, from November 18th to November 22nd, 2024. ICASST 2024 was a scientific forum for the dissemination of basic research and/or technological development projects, which allows interaction between professionals, scholars and industrialists, promoting scientific-technological collaborations in the aerospace field and related areas. The program included presentations, round tables, courses/workshops, talk sessions, as well as keynote lectures given by widely recognized national and international experts in their area. The Conference was held in a hybrid way, face-to-face/virtual.

For the review and acceptance of research papers, a high-level Academic Committee was consolidated, consisting of 34 institutional, national and international researchers. Research centres and schools of the Instituto Politécnico Nacional participated in the Scientific Committee, such as Centro de Desarrollo Aeroespacial (CDA), Unidad Profesional Interdisciplinaria en Ingeniería y Tecnologías Avanzadas (UPIITA), Escuela Superior de Ingeniería Mecánica y Eléctrica Unidad Zacatenco (ESIME Zacatenco), Centro de Investigación y Desarrollo de Tecnología Digital (CITEDI), Centro de Innovación y Desarrollo Tecnológico en Cómputo (CIDETEC), as well as Centro de Investigación en Computación (CIC). In the national face, we had the participation in the Scientific Committee of Agencia Espacial Mexicana (AEM), Centro de Investigación Científicas de Yucatán (CICY), Instituto Mexicano del Petróleo (IMP), Centro de Investigación en Matemáticas, A.C. (CIMAT), Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán (UAdY), Unidad de Alta Tecnología, Facultad de Ingeniería, Instituto de Geofísica, Instituto de Física and Facultad de Ciencias of Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), Facultad de Ingeniería of Universidad Autónoma de San Luis Potosí (UASLP), Laboratorio de Instrumentación Espacial of Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), as well as Universidad de Guanajuato and Centro de Investigación y de Estudios Avanzados (CINVESTAV). Finally, the international presence came hand in hand with Universidad de Córdoba in Colombia, Universidad Complutense de Madrid in Spain, Universidad de Costa Rica, University Space Engineering Consortium (UNISEC-Global), Tikohnov Moscow Institute of Electronics and Mathematics, HSE University in Russia, University of Bristol in the United Kingdom, Adamson University (AdU) in Philippines and Kyushu Institute of Technology in Japan. In this way, a rigorous double-blind peer-review process was carried out, which adhered to the best international scientific review practices. Of the total of papers received, there was a 42.1% rejection rate for manuscripts that did not meet the high standards of the peer-review process carried out. Accepted papers were presented orally and subsequently published in the Journal of Physics: Conference Series of the Institute of Physics (IOP) of Great Britain, in an Open Access base, for their worldwide dissemination. Finally, we would like to give a special mention to Secretaría de Investigación y Posgrado (SIP) of Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN), México, for the partial financial support received to organise the International Conference on AeroSpace Science and Technology 2024.
