| 内容記述 | New and improved materials combined with efficient structural design concepts have made an essential contribution towards the shaping of the present transportation system (STS), and now, for the replacement of the STS in the year 2005, new materials and novel designs are being studied to identify the technologies which should be developed for a low-cost future space transportation system (FSTS). Three basic structural arrangements were considered for the FSTS orbiter. They include a nonintegral tank arrangement, an integral-tank arrangement, and a hybrid of the first two. Three representative arrangements regarding wall constructions are considered. Each employs a blade-stiffened aluminum tank with reinforced closed-cell-foam cryogenic insulation. Attention is given to an aluminum-alloy structure, a graphite-epoxy structure, a graphite-polyimide structure, a carbon-carbon surface panel structure, a graphite-composite fuselage structure, serviceability and all-weather considerations, and structural concept ratings. |
