Passive Damping of Solar Array Vibrations Using Hyperelastic Shape Memory Alloy with Multilayered Viscous Lamina
A novel passive vibration-damping device is proposed and investigated for a large deployable solar array. One strategy for achieving high damping in a solar panel is using a yoke structure comprising a hyperelastic shape memory alloy and multiple viscous adhesive layers of acrylic tape. The effectiv...
