Interaction Between Gravity Compensation Suspension System and Deployable Structure
نویسنده
چکیده
Gravity compensation suspension systems are essential to support space structures during tests on Earth, but also impose constraints on the structures that have the effect of changing their behavior. A computational and experimental study of the interaction of a rigid panel solar array model with a manually adjustable suspension system during quasi-static deployment tests in the 1-g environment of the laboratory is presented. A methodology is established for modeling this interaction, for predicting the effects of suspension system adjustments, and for optimizationof the suspension system through these adjustments. Some improvements can be achieved bymanual adjustments, but further optimization requires an active system.
