Abstract

Occasionally, a series of circumstances and events presents the rich opportunity for the mass properties technology to examine what-if has learned from the past, extract from the reality of the present, and combine this knowledge in preparation for the future. Such a bootstrapping opportunity has recently allowed the mass properties technology at this Company to upgrade its computerized mass properties analysis and ‘reporting tool.
This paper describes the mass properties computing system which has evolved, the portions of the system which have been completed, and future work planned. To illustrate solutions to multi-module mass properties integration problems, a demonstration modular space station i s used. The integration solutions are a result of experience from the Delta launch vehicle, the Saturn S-IVB-IB/V flight stages, and the Skylab space station.
