Abstract

In order to include realistic models early in the design of space applications and in the multi-disciplinary review iterations of the concepts, reduction strategies have been used to build libraries of models that can be rapidly accessed by experts in a design team. In the present paper we explain how, in thermo-mechanical problems, the reduction space considered to construct the reduced model can been enriched and improved by considering the quasi-static structural response associated to the thermal modes.
