Through IKAROS's on-orbit operation, one of the most critical problems was a sail's shape imbalance during the sail deployment sequence. This paper focuses on the evaluation and consideration of the sail's imbalance through high vacuum experiments using a scale-down sail model. The experimental results obtained using the specially designed rotating mechanism and a small scale model lead to a hypothesis of the reason for the IKAROS's imbalanced deployment. The experimental results are extrapolated up to IKAROS's scale, using dimensionless analyses.}, pages = {Pc_55--Pc_62}, title = {Experiment and Analysis of Spinning Membrane Deployment Focusing on Shape Imbalance for Solar Sail}, volume = {12}, year = {2014}, yomi = {サカモト, ヒラク and オクイズミ, ノブカツ} }
