scope:
Practice:
The use of structural analysis as part of a concurrent engineering effort including thermal and optical analysis in the design of optical mirrors and assessment of their optical performance to assure reliable optical and structural performance. Early in the design process, structural analysis can assist in determining allowable thermal conditions, evaluate various mounting concepts, and provide initial optical performance for assumed thermal environments.
