Project Introduction • Project conducted as part of an 8 week interactive JPL-Caltech course • Performed analysis on multiple aspects of JPL flight project: NuSTAR 2
NuSTAR Mission Overview • X-Ray Observatory • Obtain higher resolution images of X-Ray sources • Two hard X-Ray optics with 10 m focal lengths • 24 month mission (2) X-Ray Mirrors Mast & Canister (2) Focal Plane Modules Spacecraft Bus 3
NuSTAR Description (2) X-Ray Mirrors S/C Bus 10.9 m Extendible Boom 4
Chief Concern • X-Ray optics require precise pointing and alignment • Mirrors are mounted on end of extensible boom • Required accuracy of optics mandate determination of boom behavior 5
Ae 105 Project Goals • Analyze the performance of NuSTAR observatory • Conduct structural and thermal analysis of the boom • Predict attitude and dynamics of the S/C • Design a metrology system to determine the position and orientation of the mirrors with respect to the bus • Assure JPL level 1 and below requirements are met 7
Structural/Thermal • Input: Disturbance forces estimated by dynamics • Output: Modal analysis results to dynamics and metrology 9
Dynamics • Input: Frequencies from structures • Output: Forces to structures 10
Metrology • Input: Frequencies from structures • Output: Metrology system to JPL 11

Introduction • Objectives • Timeline • Boom Description • CALFEM/ANSYS Verification • Cases (1-4) • Thermal Analysis • Deliverables • Conclusions 13
Structural/Thermal Objectives • Goal: • Create a FEM model of the NuSTAR boom. • Determine static loading cases • Perform modal analysis on the model to determine natural frequencies. • Create an FD thermal model of the NuSTAR boom • Model shall be capable of determining temperatures based on loading conditions 14
Timeline of Approach • Establish material properties across all models • Developed independent CALFEM and ANSYS models • Developed FD thermal code • PDR • All RFAs accepted and answered by CDR work • Verified static and modal analysis from ANSYS with CALFEM
CALFEM/ANSYS Verification • CALFEM – less capable, more open • ANSYS – more capable, less open • CALFEM will be used to verify results from ANSYS to establish ANSYS as a proper modeling package 18
Case Types 19
Case #1 • Same as JPL case used to characterize boom 20
Axial Mode 23
Torsion 24
Case #1: Comparisons • Conclusion- CALFEM and ANSYS are internally consistent 25
Case #2 26
Case #2: Comparisons • Conclusion- CALFEM and ANSYS are internally consistent 27
Case #3 28
Case #3: Comparisons • Conclusion- CALFEM and ANSYS are internally consistent 29
CALFEM/ANSYS Verification • ANSYS is verified as a modeling package for the NuSTAR boom • Based on results under multiple scenarios using CALFEM and ANSYS • CALFEM – less capable, more open • ANSYS – more capable, less open 30
Case Comparison • Modal frequencies vary as conditions are moved closer to flight parameters
Thermal • Assumptions • Isothermal members • Ignores diagonal cables • No conduction between members or joints • Radiative coupling between members • Tilted at 10o away from Sun • All material properties measured at 298.15 K. • CTE-Al = 24 ppm/K • CTE-C = -1 ppm/K • Orbital period = 5700 s • Earth albedo = 0.3 • S/C coating • Absorptivity = 0.17 • Emissivity = 0.83 37

Thermal • Assuming calibration at 298 K • Sunside: ∆x = 903 μm • Shadeside: ∆x = 861 μm • Across Boom ∆x = 42.6 μm ∆Θ = 182.6 μrad • Meets JPL Level 1 requirements 40
Structural/Thermal Deliverables • To Dynamics • Moment of Inertia matrix • Stiffness matrix • Calculated natural frequencies • To Metrology • Deflections • Calculated natural frequencies • To JPL • CALFEM and ANSYS models of boom • ANSYS verified through CALFEM modeling • FD model of thermal loading of the boom • 3D Modal Mass matrix calculator for CALFEM library 41
Conclusion • ANSYS is a verified static and modal analysis software for NuSTAR • Have created a more robust thermal and structural model of S/C flight conditions • Spacecraft meets level 1 structural/thermal requirements 42
Recommendations • Characterize boom response under alternate conditions • “Test-as-you-fly” • Investigate control system interaction with ACS • Does cable prestress change with temperature?
