چکیده
The design of Distributed Space Systems (DSSs) is a challenging task, especially in the conceptual design stage where unknown or uncertain information extensively exist. This paper investigates the problem of designing DSSs in the presence of uncertainties. The uncertainties associated with DSSs are discussed. It is shown that DSSs are particularly affected by non-technical uncertainties. Thus, in this paper the methodology of Uncertainty Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (UMDO) is extended to allow inclusion of non-technical uncertainties and is applied to the design of DSS for the first time. The impact of the proposed methodology is investigated through a case study, where the results obtained through UMDO and determinative MDO are compared.
