Numerical model for prediction of wrinkling behavior on a thin-membrane structure
One of the key aspects of developing gossamer space structures is the prediction of wrinkles and slacks in the material. Wrinkles, which essentially refer to elastic buckling, have been analyzed numerically using finite element methods (FEMs) with shell elements, but at a high computational cost. Th...
