摘要

The application of geometric and materially non-linear finite element analysis techniques to the NASA Ultra Long Duration Balloon (ULDB) Program has been driven by the need to understand and overcome deployment problems that have shadowed the chosen #pumpkin' design. Tensys have been involved in this effort since 2004, alongside parallel investigations into material characterization, fabrication techniques and a program of model and prototype testing. The S-cleft, a stable but asymmetric geometric anomaly that develops during the ascent and pressurization, has been recently identified as the principal design problem. This is a different instability to the overall geometric issues previously identified both numerically and physically. As for these problems, the likely solution to the S-cleft requires the minimization of excess material in the lobes of the pumpkin design. Achieving this will test the structural performance of the film to its limits and make full use of the strain arresting feature of the much stiffer tendons. A full numerical model that takes account of the non-linear visco-elastic response of the film is required to properly judge these design issues over the whole duration of a flight. Stress concentrations must be considered, along with the influence of shape change though film creep on the maintenance of stability. This paper summarizes the numerical paths that have been followed en route to the current situation, and details the implementation of the latest visco-elastic formulation. A foundation is set for `whole flight' analyses of balloon stresses and stability.
