Synopsis

A typical subsystem found in almost all aircraft and space vehicles consists of beam, plate and/or shell elements attached to each other in a rigid or flexible manner. Due to limits on their weight, the elements must be highly flexible, and due to limitations on their initial configuration, those aggregates often have to contain several links so the substructure may be unfolded once deployed. The authors maintain that in order to understand completely the dynamic response of such a complex elastic structure, it is not sufficient to consider only its global motion but also necessary to take into account the flexibility of individual elements and interaction and transmission of elastic effects such as bending, torsion, and axial deformation at junctions.
