Abstract
One of the main issues in the arrangement of equipment in multi-layered satellites includes placing the equipment in each layer separately. In the arrangement of equipment on surfaces, the non-overlap constraint has always been a challenge, especially for parts that do not have a circular cross-section. This paper presents a robust flexible programming model (RFPM) for placing equipment in different layers and considering uncertainty for placement of cubic equipment. Comparing the output of the proposed model with previous studies in this field shows that the efficiency of the model has increased significantly to meet the limitations of non-overlapping between equipment. Eventually, it is expected that this research can cover the existing gaps in this field and by observing other limitations such as stability and thermal limitations, moments of inertia and center of gravity, it will reduce the design time in the conceptual and preliminary phase and ultimately reduce the overall dimensions of the satellite, which has always been one of the main goals of designers.
