论文名称：Damping formulations for jointed deployable space structures  

摘要：Both the friction caused by the preload in locked joints and the impact caused by clearance in unlocked joints cause energy dissipation in jointed deployable structures. The energy dissipation of locked joints is studied by analyzing the force on the infinitesimal body of the joint. The jointed beam with an unlocked joint is simplified into an impact mass-spring model with clearance, which considers the coefficient of restitution of impact. The energy dissipations of the joint caused by friction and clearance are transformed into damping ratios by Taylor expansion. Then, the effects of pressure, clearance and the dynamic parameters on the damping of joints are analyzed by utilizing the damping ratio formulation. The damping ratio increases with the preload and the clearance. To validate the damping ratio formulation of joints, experiments on a single jointed beam with preload and double jointed beams with clearance are conducted. Comparison between the experimental results and the model simulation results shows that the friction and impact damping models are accurate for the dynamic calculation of deployable structures. Furthermore, the damping ratio formulations can be directly introduced into the design and dynamic analysis of deployable structures.
