The effects of random vibration on the dimensional stability of space-based precision structures

Low-cost Earth-imaging instruments typically require high performance structures to ensure that critical alignments of optical components are maintained between the assembly phase, and the on-orbit operational phase. There are a number of threats to structural dimensional stability, including therma...
