Active Dynamic Analysis and Vibration Control of Gossamer Structures Using Smart Materials
Increasing costs for space shuttle missions translate to smaller, lighter, and more flexible satellites that maintain or improve current dynamic requirements. This is especially true for optical systems and surfaces. Lightweight, inflatable structures, otherwise known as gossamer structures, are s...
