Deployable Sandwich-like Shell Structural System
One embodiment of a deployable structural system having sandwich-like shell stiffness and strength properties constructed of an outer elastic sheet (11) and an inner elastic sheet (12) connected by a plurality of parallel elongated substantially rigid webs (13) wherein hinges (14) constitute the connections. The hinge connection spacing dimensions on the inner and outer elastic sheets are differing such that the resulting assemblage may be elastically bent into a compact cylindrical configuration. Deployment is achieved through reversal of the bending process and application of sufficient external supports such that the deployed configuration is statically stable. Additional embodiments are described.
