Project Design and Deadline Considerations

Time to resolve Design Issues
 
1
Disclamer
Due to the engineering meeting last week I
have not had time to coordinate this material
with Tim or the L3 Managers.
Use this as a general guide but not as concrete
numbers. We are revising the schedule now and
will hopefully have better dated in January
2
Hard Deadlines
The DOE CD2/3c review is October 2019.
We must be under EVMS (US) 6 months prior to this. And
the Review cycle will start in April of 2019.
Realistically no significant changes will be possible to the
first detector module after November of 2018
.
One must foresee that due to the prototype activities
some changes are necessary and one must leave time for
this.
Both detector 1 and 2 will be fixed at CD2/3c.
However any major change to the configuration after
the start of production of the ProtoDUNE detector
would either add to the experiment’s risk by installing
non-fully tested elements or require a second run of
ProtoDUNE.
The project intends to plan a second protoDUNE run just in
case the collaboration decides to proceed with this..

Responsibility
If the working groups show that some aspect of
the detector design negatively impacts science
then DUNE as a whole will need to work to make
changes to improve the design.
Changes can increase detector cost, require re-design
(with cost), and  will produce delays. There must be
sufficient funding at CD2/3c to construct the
detectors. There will always be a cost benefit analysis.
The sooner any changes are known the easier
they will be to implement.
We want to remain open to improving the
detector.

Some general short term considerations
APA Frame
The frame design is well advanced now.
Dimensional changes require re-design
Changing wire pitch would require evaluating the impact of
the higher stresses before understanding how much time
and effort is needed to affect the change.
This would probably cause a 6 month delay in
ProtoDUNE now and cost probably 500k.
Need input from L3 managers to refine the impacts.
5
APA continued
Changing wire pitch and angle
The wire guides, winding pattern, and design of the front
end electronics changes if the pitch and angle change.
Design of the FEMB will start in January. It is planned to be
doing first winding tests of a dummy frame in Spring.
Changes in pitch and angle will have increasing impact on
cost and schedule after Christmas (assume the frame does
not need strengthened)
I need input from the managers but simulation, redesign,
re-tooling would probably cause a few months delay now
and six months after spring. Cost impacts after Spring
would be on the 1-2 million dollar level. Schedule delay
will be 6 months plus elapsed time.
Some general short term considerations
6
Photon Detector
The interface to the APA needs to be defined at Christmas
to keep on track.
Changes after this could have the same impact as changes to
the frame.
The photon coverage would be highest priority.
Due to cost limitations work on the photon backend
readout is not progressing this year.
Changes to the requirements for the backend readout
should be known by late Spring so work can be planned for
Fall. One year solid work minimum should be foreseen to
make and test the backend readout for the photon system.
With the parallel development of SBND on could consider
changing technology after ProtoDUNE for the detector
number 1. However a risk analysis of this should be
performed to understand possible implications.
7
DAQ
The DAQ software including event builder, run
control, slow control will require roughly one
year if substantial changes from the 35t are to
be made.
Hardware changes to backend readout (TPC
and Photon) and timing would need longer to
implement and test.
We have not worked through when this needs to
begin.
8
Computing
Computing at CERN can become critical path
and should not be forgotten.
We need to be sure the data needed to
select/design  the optimum detector is collected.
9
ProtoDUNE Data
If data is needed to verify the detector
performance then this group should be sure it
will be collected in ProtoDUNE.
Beam delivery to the cryostat must be
resolved soon.
Are other inputs needed?

The project highlights the need for timely resolution of design issues, updates on hard deadlines, shared responsibilities for detector design enhancements, and short-term considerations for design modifications. It emphasizes the critical deadlines, potential impacts of design changes, and the importance of proactive decision-making throughout the project timeline.
