Deployable structures are mobile assemblies which do not aim motion but to attain different configurations depending on the service requirements. These structures are widely used in space applications due to storage limitations of the launch vehicles. The large diversity of design alternatives should be evaluated in design of deployable parts of spacecrafts. This study aims to present design alternatives of antennas, masts and solar panels of space devices. Also use of spatial linkages in deployable structure designs is discussed.

Simulation Based Optimal Sensor Actuator Positioning on a Fin Like Structure Pedremasl, Nıma; Şahin, Melin; Acar, Erdem (2015-06-26) Aircraft structures are subjected to high amplitude dynamic loads under service conditions; hence, it is necessary to determine their dynamic properties. Dynamic properties of a structure can be determined using simulation-based methods (e.g., finite element method) or using experimental modal analysis (EMA) methods. An EMA system should be lightweight and accurate so that it does not have a negative impact on the dynamic performance of the structure. For this purpose, the transducers (sensor and actuators)...
Dynamic modelling and control of a gimballed airborne antenna platform with mass unbalance and friction Şeref, Tuğçe; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2018) Inertial stabilized gimballed systems are widely-used in many applications to achieve a high precision positioning. Airborne antennas pointing target as a part of the satellite communication may be examples of such systems. This thesis presents the dynamic modelling and control of a two axes gimballed airborne antenna platform. First, reference frames and the transformation matrices are defined to build up the motion of the antenna and kinematic equations of each gimbal are derived. Next, the dynamic equati...
External configuration design and aerodynamic optimization of modular guided munitions Gün, Mert; Sezer Uzol, Nilay; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2019) Guided munitions, also known as gliding missiles, are not stand alone systems; rather, they are converted from a dummy body with the help of guidance kits. Guided munitions are used in great number during military operations, unlike air-to-air or cruise missiles. Guided munitions can be classified in two main sub-categories. First group provides guidance and stability with use of strakes. These type of missiles used for relatively short ranges. Second group has wings instead of strakes and effective in larg...
Tool support for worst case end to end delay analysis of AFDX networks Efe, Orhun; Bazlamaçcı, Cüneyt Fehmi; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2016) Avionics Full Duplex Switched Ethernet (AFDX) is among the major technological components used in avionics systems. Since its publication, AFDX has spread out rapidly and has been deployed in major aircrafts such as Airbus A400M, Boeing 787, Bombardier C Series, etc. In AFDX networks, data is exchanged between end systems by utilizing tunnels. For certification purposes, finding a safe upper bound is required in transmission process. UPPAAL is already shown to be useful for performing such a delay analysis ...
Awlp: building a custom wireless access point using open source software Çakırcalı, Alptekin; Baykal, Nazife; Department of Information Systems (2005) Almost all commercially available wireless access devices are special embedded systems with proprietary software that do not allow any modifications. Modifications to these systems are only possible by firmware upgrades released by manufacturers. However, release times of these firmware upgrades are unpredictable, and they are usually for bug-fix purposes rather than being feature and capability improvements. Thus, these devices fail to provide the needed flexibility. Ability to provide timely custom soluti...
