A critical part of a satellite is its structural subsystem, which is designed to survive launch loads and protect the operation of other subsystems. Structures are often classified into primary and secondary components, the latter includes struts and brackets that are used in different configurations as needed. Several satellite elements in static or relative movement are linked together by structural bracket connectors that are fixed securely to the satellite body. Similar to many “flying vehicles,” satellites are designed with materials as light and compact as possible, especially in small and nanosatellites.
