Abstract EN
This paper presents design, modeling, and analysis of satellite model used for remote sensing.
A detailed study is carried out for the design and modeling of the satellite structure focusing on the factors such as the selection of material, optimization of shape and geometry, and accommodation of different subsystems and payload.
The center of mass is required to be kept within the range of (1-2) cm from its geometric center.
Once the model is finalized it is required to be analyzed by the use of Ansys, a tool for finite element analysis (FEA) under given loading and boundary conditions.
Static, modal, and harmonic analyses in Ansys are performed at the time of ground testing and launching phase.
The finite element analysis results are also validated and compared with the theoretical predictions.
These analyses are quite helpful and suggest that the satellite structure does not fail and retains its structural integrity during launch environment.
