Numerical modeling of space umbrella-type mesh reflector

This paper describes numerical modeling of space umbrella-type mesh reflector. The modeling includes two stages. The first stage embraces the calculation of the shape of cable elements for reflector frontal (rear) nets by the nonlinear force density method. The second stage involves the design of th...
