Design and multibody dynamics analyses of the novel force-bearing structures for variable configuration spacecraft

Novel variable configuration spacecraft (VCS) can change its configuration by on-orbit assembly or the motion of the mechanism according to the requirements and missions, and the multibody dynamics analysis is performed to obtain the corresponding theoretical lowest values of the mechanical properti...
