The Reference Space Station design under consideration by NASA will contain several articular components, notably solar arrays and radiators. A technique to model articulation for use in determining Space Station controllability is described. The technique involves treating each articular component as a rigid free body, subject to the constraint of being attached to the Space Station proper. Because of the relatively large areas associated with some of the articular components, the resulting aerodynamics and solar radiation pressure induced forces and torques are shown to be significant. The effects of articulation on Space Station controllability as compared to the non-articulated rigid-body model are demonstrated. Plots of control forces and torques required to maintain orbital altitude and vehicle attitude are presented.
