Abstract
For the multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) question of autonomous rendezvous spacecraft, first, the analysis model and coupling relations of payload, propulsion and structure discipline are discussed; then the updated analytical target cascading (UATC) method is introduced and compared with the widely used collaborative optimization (CO). Results prove that the UATC method requires 54.8% fewer average subspace iterations than the CO and is more efficient for practical engineering MDO problem. Finally, based on the UATC method, a MDO problem of autonomous rendezvous spacecraft is solved and gets reasonable and effective results. The process proves the effectiveness of UATC method solving spacecraft MDO problem.
