Damping synthesis for a spacecraft using substructure and component data / by K.W. Lips and F.R. Vigneron.: Co24-3/7-1365-1984E-PDF

"This report demonstrates a method for the synthesis of modal damping factors and other modal data for a spacecraft in orbit, based on input information at the component/substructure level. Also, it illustrates the use of the method and the level of accuracy obtained, in a case study of the Hermes spacecraft"--Abstract, page i.
