Comparison of NASTRAN and STARDYNE static analysis of a graphite fiber reinforced plastic truss structureA static and buckling analysis of the ATS-F&G spacecraft reflector support truss (RST) and bridge truss assembly using NASTRAN was conducted. The RST is fabricated from a new material, graphite fiber reinforced plastic. A comparison is made with the NASTRAN results and the results of a similar analysis conducted using the stardyne program. The results of an actual static load test are also compared.
