Material problems on satellites
Abstract
Some of the materials problems encountered during the execution of various projects are outlined, such problems including contamination of optical payloads, structural material failures, electrically oriented problems, and advanced materials/technology developments. Areas of concern which project managers need to address are identified and general guidelines for reducing the number and effects of materials-related problems arising during a project life cycle are recommended.
