Introduction

Mr. Wu Wei-Chuan has served as the structure and mechanism engineer and worked at the Taiwan Space Agency (TASA) since 2016/06.  In the period involved the FORMOSAT-5 RSI Structure Analysis, FORMOSAT-7 Satellite Program Acoustic Ananysis, FORMOSAT-8 Satellite Structure Analysis/Vibration Test ,and Beyond 5G Satellite Structure Analysis/Vibration Test.  Furthermore, the reduction vibration  research and develope focus on damper material and tune mass damper mechanism design and test.

The laboratory is concerned with theoretical knowledge as well as the development of new tools and methods capable of bringing solutions to practical problems in the launcher vehicle vibration environment. Related research and education are focused on Vibrations, Acoustics, Structural Dynamics, and Shock. Besides developing the mechanism item such as non-explosive actuator (NEA), SADM(Solar Array Deploy Mehchanism), Tune Mass Damper (TMD), and CFRP design and manufacture.
