Simulation Investigation of the Stowing and Deployment Processes of a Self-Deployable Sunshield

The stowing and deployment processes of a self-deployable sunshield are investigated numerically in this paper. The composition of the self-deployable sunshield is described. Deployed moment theoretical models for lenticular booms are formulated based on the bending theory of curved shell. The numer...
