Abstract

The optimal Trigon panel edge size will depend on a variety of factors, including mechanism sizes, proposed panel payloads, shielding, dust control, and human factors. The Trigon system allows for a kit-of-parts approach to habitat construction and vehicle design. Trigon panels may be fitted with mobility systems and used to construct habitats, vehicles, ISMU "Cassette factories", and other permanent structures. This paper discusses panel size optimization with respect to these potential uses, introduces a spreadsheet model for multivariate data input, and describes a series of studies that have been conducted to determine the effect of variable world reference frame acceleration scenarios (surface gravities) on panel edge dimensions.
