sensibility and thermal stability. But deployable antenna always enters into and leaves the earth shadow periodically when it orbits the earth, and it is affected by the shadows of itself Thus a key design for the antenna structure is to control its deformation in a limited range. Obviously, thermal analysis is very important for such structure to maintain its high thermal stability. of a supported backbone (deployable truss) and a reflector surface (flexible mesh). All analysis in this dissertation is based on this model, such as temperature field analysis, thermal deformation analysis, thermal stress analysis, thermal vibration analysis, and so on. tetrahedral element, is discussed. And the mechanism of spider nodes, middle nodes and torsion springs in these nodes are also illustrated. 6-node triangular membrane element are deduced. A temperature analysis procedure has been programmed. The obvious change in temperature happens when the antenna enter into the earth shadow, so this case should be studied to decide whether the temperature of the structure and its components are in the limited range or not. membrane element are put forward. According to the stiffness matrix of these elements and the structural equilibrium equations, thermal deformation and thermal stress of the structure can be computed. The results show that either the thermal deformation or the thermal stress is in the desired range, they have little effect on the shape and stiffness of the entire structure. vibration. The thermally vibration responses of the antenna are studied when it enters into the earth shadow from sunshine and when it enters into sunshine from the earth shadow. The results show that in both cases, there is no vibration in Y direction. The velocity and acceleration in X direction and Z direction are both small, but the displacement in X direction is large, the maximum is 6.5mm.
