Form-Finding Method for Large Mesh Reflector Antennas with Flexible Trusses Based on Stiffness Analysis
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The cable-net structure is an important part of the mesh reflector antenna, and it determines the accuracy of the reflector. Traditional approaches for designing mesh reflector antennas usually treat the supporting truss ...
Robust Design of Cable-Network Antennas with Imperfect Cable Lengths
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Uncertainties can be introduced into the structural performance of cable-network antennas by inevitable manufacturing errors, which may result in failure in service. In this paper, robust optimization is first adopted to ...
