This paper examines modeling and simulation challenges for deployable spacecraft structures with softgood components. Previous studies highlighted the numerical challenges due to the mixture of high stiffness and low stiffness contact in this class of structures. This paper examines the use of the commercial LS-DYNA nonlinear finite element code on a set of relevant benchmark problems.
