Fast Coupled Loads Analysis Method: Norton-Thevenin Receptance CouplingA new method called Norton-Thevenin Receptance Coupling (NTRC) has been developed to perform coupled loads analysis (CLA). NTRC provides a tool that payload developers can use to obtain launch loads at a fraction of the cost of a CLA any time it is required in the payload design cycle. NTRC combines the frequency domain component coupling method of Receptance Coupling with the Norton and Thevenin theory used in force limiting to derive an alternate method for performing CLA.
