Micropolar Continuum Modeling of Large Space Structures with Flexible Joints and Thermal Effects: Theory and Experiment

Micropolar Continuum Modeling of Large Space Structures with Flexible Joints and Thermal Effects: Theory and Experiment

The presented work is intended to develop a geometrically reduced order (homogenized) model for a large antenna space structure with flexible joints. An energy equivalence concept is employed to find the continuum model for the system. The kinetic and strain energy expressions of the fundamental ele...
