Aerodynamic calculation of wind impact on mobile radar antenna design

In this work, the aerodynamic strength calculation of the radar station was carried out in 37 design cases in which the direction of the wind flow and the position of the antenna panel relative to the vehicle were varied. The vehicle and container were considered exclusively in the aerodynamic calculation for the calculation of air masses. For the most stressed cases, the static calculation was carried out and the critical stresses of the whole structure under study and the antenna panel structure separately were determined

Investigation of wind effects on the design of a mobile radar antenna panel

This paper presents the static calculation of the mobile radar station antenna fabric design, taking into account the action of its own weight of the load-bearing structure products combined with the load from the limit wind flow. Part of the load-bearing elements are made of the advanced orthotropic material alumoglass plastic, which will allow to significantly gain in weight while maintaining the necessary rigidity and strength. On the basis of aerodynamic calculation, the cases of maximum loading of antenna fabric have been chosen. The possibility of using products made by SLM technology in especially stressed and critical products has been considered
