Simulating Space Radiation for Testing Shielding Material Effectiveness
… accurate evaluation of the shielding effects of spacecraft structures on the incoming space radiation environment. Since the complicated shielding geometry plays an important role, existing transport codes must be improved to predict dose deposition inside the vehicle. Computer simulations of …

High-temperature superconductors as electromagnetic deployment and support structures in spacecraft
… and increasing the stowed-to-deployed ratio of spacecraft systems. This technique uses the magnetic fields generated by high-temperature superconductors (HTSs) to support spacecraft structures and deploy them to operational configurations from stowed positions inside a launch vehicle fairing. …

Optimization of Geometric Parameters for a Deployable Space Structure
Deployable structures are used for many different spacecraft applications like solar arrays, antennas, and booms. They allow spacecraft with large structural components to comply with the volume restrictions of launch platforms. This research optimizes the shape and size of these structural …

Multidisciplinary Design Optimization of Composite Spacecraft Structures using Lamination Parameters and Integer Programming
… and enabling the optimization of complex spacecraft structures. Since the design team consists of multiple entities from different domains working together to build the final product, the design and analysis tools must be readily available and compatible. An integrated approach is required …

Space Launch Environment and Vibration Testing
The pedigree of spacecraft dynamic load testing is through the one-axis-at-a-time; however, the launch vibration environment used to be a simultaneous six-axis, including three translational and three rotational. Literature suggests that the multi-axis environment induces different acceleration and …
