Double Variational Principle for the Construction Synthesis of Steerable Radio Telescopes
Abstract
A numerical variational method for synthesis of the maximum stiffness construction of radiotelescopes based on the double variational principle of potential energy of deformations is described. The results obtained show that the maximum stiffness construction considerably reduces the values of the lambda_min/D ratio for steerable radiotelescopes.
