Deployable structures and mechanisms have become a cornerstone of modern space engineering, enabling the realisation of large apertures, antennas, and other functional systems from compact launch ...
A study published in Nature Communications presents a way to create deployable structures that transform from compact folded states into expansive configurations with perfectly smooth surfaces.
The proposed Space Station Photovoltaic Deployable Boom has been analyzed for operating temperatures. The boom glass/epoxy structure design needs protective shielding from environmental degradation.
