Add to ORKGSince about 15 years DLR has been investigating the use of deployable masts for large deployable space structures. Applications include antennas, solar arrays, solar sails, de-orbiting devices and many more. Currently, a project each on solar sails (GOSSAMER-1) and de-orbiting structures are in progress. Both use the rollable lightweight CFRP masts (booms) of DLR for the provision of structural stiffness. The deployable booms are hollow, thin walled structures. Thus, the behaviour under bending or compression load is dominated by stability effects, or more specifically, buckling. In the present work a FE model is developed and verified for the prediction of limit buckling loads of the booms. Patran/Nastran 2010.1 has been used for the simul...
