Structural health monitoring: an enabler for responsive satellites
2008
The Air Force Research Laboratory/Space Vehicles Directorate (AFRL/RV) is developing Structural Health Monitoring
(SHM) technologies in support of the Department of Defense's Operationally Responsive Space (ORS) initiative. Such
technologies will significantly reduce the amount of time and effort required to assess a satellite's structural surety.
Although SHM development efforts abound, ORS drives unique requirements on the development of these SHM
systems. This paper describes several technology development efforts, aimed at solving those technical issues unique to
an ORS-focused SHM system, as well as how the SHM system could be implemented within the structural verification
process of a Responsive satellite.
