Abstract

Inflatable structures shape accuracy and stability are a key factor of the wing structural design. The article introduced the application of finite element analysis in inflatable structure form-finding,analyzed the influence of the inflatable aerocyst cellular construction parameters to the inflation deformation,has attributed its relative relations with curves and the function,and further studied the relations between the construction weight and inflation deformation with the parameters variation.
