Abstract:The Telescopic Tubular Mast (TTM) has excellent performance and is widely used in aerospace. Reasonable parameter design and optimization can shorten development
cycle and improve performance for TTM. This paper designed a TTM driven by the bistable carbon reeled composite boom. The equivalent model of the TTM is established and simulated, which can be used as ex-tending structure for the solar sail. The work flow of the solar sail with the TTM is introduced. The natural frequency of the equivalent model and t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
