Structural/thermal considerations for design of large space platform structuresA method is described for placing a large, STS-compatible platform on orbit utilizing a construction method employing both deployable and erectable structures. A multifunctional mechanism is used for deployable structures and an on-orbit assembly is used for erectable structures. Also analyses are discussed which assess the thermal distortion of a simple open truss and a more complex truss.
