折纸衍生空间可展结构研究回顾与展望刍议

Immature State-of-the-art Review on Origami-inspired Spaceborne Deployable Structures

作为起源于中国,发展于日本的传统手工艺,折纸由于其可以实现二维与三维结构之间形态高效转换的特性,近年来受到了科研人员与工程人员广泛的关注,为空间可展结构的创新研究提供了新的思路。对学界与工程界针对一维、二维、三维折纸衍生可展结构的研究现状进行了阐述,指出后续研究应关注的刚性平面载荷高效折展、柔性结构管理、非欧几里得折纸理论、驱动设计与动力学、重力卸载与试验考核、与其他折展机构的综合等六个问题。

As the ancient art originated from China and evolved in Japan,origami has recently gained popularity among scientists and engineers because of the technique is able to transform 2-dimensional sheet to 3-dimensional structure efficiently and vice versa,which has introduced a brand new idea to the innovation of spaceborne deployable structures.This study dedicates on the stat-of-the-art review of one-dimensional,two-dimensional and three-dimensional origami-inspired spaceborne deployable structures respectively,and recommends that the problems for deployment of rigid planar payloads,management of flexible structures,non-Euclidean origami,driven design and dynamics,gravity compensation and experiment,synthesis with other deployable mechanism may be concerned by scientists and engineers in the following investigations.
