Abstract
The spacecraft design loads are discussed in detail. The use and the background of the quasi-static loads, deterministic and random mechanical vibration loads, acoustic and shock loads, transfer orbit loads (e.g. pressure variations) and orbital loads (e.g. deployment shocks) are illustrated and examples are given. The chapter ends with a number of exercises.
